A cylindrical log of radius 0.2 meter, 5 meters in length, and with a mass of 100 kilograms is placed vertically in a lake so that it is free to bob up and down. Assume that there is no water resistance. A weight of 100 kilograms of negligible volume is attached to the bottom of the log so that it remains vertical (so the total mass of the log and weight together is 200 kilograms). The mass density of water is 1000 kilograms per cubic meter. (For convenience, assume that the acceleration due to gravity is g =10m/s^2. There are two forces acting on the log: gravity and the buoyant force of the water. The buoyant force can be computed from Archimedes' principle: An object that is completely or partially submerged in a fluid is acted on by an upward (buoyant) force equal to the weight of the displaced fluid. Let t be time in seconds and let d(t) denote the depth (in meters) of the bottom of the log.

Required:
Compute the depth deq of the log in its equilibrium position, i. e. when the magnitude of the buoyant force is exactly equal the combined weight (in Newtons) of the log plus the mass.

Acommon technique in analysis of scientific data is normalization. the purpose of normalizing data is to eliminate irrelevant constants that can obscure the salient features of the data. the goal of this experiment is to test the hypothesis that the flux of light decreases as the square of the distance from the source. in this case, the absolute value of the voltage measured by the photometer is irrelevant; only the relative value conveys useful information. suppose that in part 2.2.2 of the experiment, students obtain a signal value of 162 mv at a distance of 4 cm and a value of 86 mv at a distance of 5.7 cm. normalize the students' data to the value obtained at 4 cm. (divide the signal value by 162.) then calculate the theoretically expected (normalized) value at 5.7 cm.
