A cubical wooden block of side 3 cm floats on water kept in a vessel. The lower face of the cube just touches the free end of a vertical spring fixed at the bottom of the vessel. Find the maximum weight that can be put on the block so that the weight does not touch water. The specific gravity of wood = 0.8 , the force constant of the spring = 50N*m^(-1)andg=10m*s^(-2).
