A lost shipping container is found resting on the ocean floor and completely submerged. The container is 6.0 m long, 2.3 m wide, and 2.3 m high. Salvage experts attach a spherical balloon to the top of the container and inflate it with air pumped down from the surface. When the balloon's radius is 1.6 m, the shipping container just begins to rise towards the surface. What is the mass of the container? Ignore the mass of the balloon and the air within it. Do not neglect the buoyant force exerted on the shipping container by the water. The density of seawater is 1025 kg/m3.

A 0.180 kg cube of ice (frozen water) is floating in glycerin. The gylcerin is in a tall cylinder that has inside radius 3.50 cm. The level of the glycerin is well below the top of the cylinder. If the ice completely melts, by what distance does the height of liquid in the cylinder change? Does the level of liquid rise or fall? That is, is the surface of the water above or below the original level of the glycerin before the ice melted?

4. A light spring of constant k = 90.0 N/m is attached vertically to a table. A balloon (with empty mass 2.50 g) is filled with a mixture of helium (density = 0.179 kg/m³) and air (density = 1.29 kg/m³) to a volume of 4.00 m³ and is then connected to the spring, causing the spring to stretch. If the spring stretches by 1.0 cm, find the required density of the gas mixture, and find how much helium and air you need to produce that mixture.
