A large rectangular cube made of wood has the follow dimentions: a height, h = 2m, and an area od A = 0.25m^2. The wood that the cube is made of has a density of 800kg/m^3. The cube is then place vertically in water where it floats to rest. The density of the water is 1000kg/m^3. Then the cube is pushed down slightly (by a distance y) and released. The resulting motion is simple harmonic motion. A) Determine the mass of the cube. B) Determine the depth,d, that the cube will float. C) If the cube is pushed further down under water by a distance, y, write an expression for the net force on the block in terms of: y,A,g,p.

A spring is attached to the bottom of an empty swimming pool, with the axis of the spring oriented vertically. An 25.0-kg hollow block of wood (p = 840 kg/m³) is fixed to the top of the spring and compresses it. Then the pool is filled with water, completely covering the block. The spring is now observed to be stretched twice as much as it had been compressed. Determine the percentage of the block's total volume that is hollow. Ignore any air in the hollow space.
