A 10.0 kg metal block measuring 12.0 cm X 10.0 cm X 10.0 cm is suspended from a spring scale (mass meter) and immersed in water. The 12.0 cm dimension is vertical, and the top of the block is 5.00 cm below the water surface. (A) What are the forces acting at the top and bottom of the block? (Take P0 = 1,013 0 X 105 N / m2.) (B) What is the reading on the spring balance? (C) Show that the buoyant force (float) is equal to the difference between the forces at the top and bottom of the block.

A mass m = 1 kg is suspended from a spring that is stretched 1 cm under the influence of the weight of this mass. Now a periodic force is applied external of F (t) = 200 cos (vt) on the mass, which was initially in static balance. Disregarding all friction, get a relationship for position of the mass as a function of time, x (t). Also determine the value of ω which will cause resonance to occur
