A light spring with a spring constant of 107.0 N/m rests vertically on the table, as shown in (a) below. A 2.00 g balloon is filled with helium (0°C and 1 atm pressure) to a volume of 4.50 m3 and connected to the spring, causing the spring to stretch, as shown in (b) below. How much does the spring stretch when the system is in equilibrium. (The density of helium is 0.179 kg/m3. The magnitude of the spring force equals kΔx.)

Strato-lab was a 1950s project in which large balloons were used to carry astronauts in training to the Earth's stratosphere. In one flight, a balloon 38.5 m in diameter was used to lift a total payload of 580 kg. Assume the volume of the balloon was filled with helium gas of density 0.179 kg/m3. The air density was 1.20 kg/m3. (a) What was the buoyant force acting on the Strato-lab balloon? (Enter the magnitude.) (b) What was the net force...

A sphere is attached to a vertical spring of constant k = 11,990 N/m. As the sphere is allowed to hang from the spring, it also is partially submerged in water, where 60% of its volume is underwater. When the sphere is in equilibrium, it has displaced the spring by 10.0 cm from its relaxed length. The density of the sphere is 4250 kg/m3. (a) Has the spring stretched or compressed? Explain. (b) What is the radius of the sphere?
