Passage XIV) A uniform cylindrical block of mass 2M and cross-sectional area A remains partially submerged in a non viscous liquid of density `rho`, density of the material of the cylinder is `3rho`. The cylinder is connected to lower end of the tank by means of a light spring of spring constant K. The other end of the cylinder is connected to anotehr block of mass M by means of a light inextensible sting as shown in the figure. The pulleys shown are massless and frictionless and assume that the cross-section of the cylinder is very small in comparison to that of the tank. Under equilibrium conditions, half of the cylinder is submerged. [given that cylinder always remains partially immersed) Under equilibrium conditionsA. extensions of the spring is `(Mg)/(3K)`B. compression of the spring is `(2Mg)/(3K)`C. compression of the spring is `(Mg)/8k)`D. extension of the spring is `(Mg)/(6k)`
