The weight of an empty balloon on a spring balance is $w_1$. The weight becomes $w_2$ when the balloon is filled with air. Let the weight of the air itself be $w$. Neglect the thickness of the balloon when it is filled with air. Also,neglect the difference in the densities of air inside and outside the balloon. Then:

$A$ cylindrical block of area of cross-section $A$ and of material of density $\rho$ is placed in a liquid of density one-third of the density of the block. The block compresses a spring,and the compression in the spring is one-third of the length of the block. If the acceleration due to gravity is $g$,the spring constant of the spring is:

$A$ vessel contains oil (density = $0.8 \; g/cm^3$) over mercury (density = $13.6 \; g/cm^3$). $A$ homogeneous sphere floats with half of its volume immersed in mercury and the other half in oil. The density of the material of the sphere in $g/cm^3$ is:

$A$ wooden block of density $0.5 \ g/cc$ is tied to a string. The other end of the string is fixed to the bottom of a tank. The tank is filled with a liquid of density $1 \ g/cc$. If the tension of the string is $20 \ N$, then the mass of the block is (Take $g = 10 \ m/s^2$) (in $kg$)

$A$ uniform rod is suspended horizontally from its mid-point. $A$ piece of metal whose weight is $w$ is suspended at a distance $l$ from the mid-point. Another weight $w_{1}$ is suspended on the other side at a distance $l_{1}$ from the mid-point to bring the rod to a horizontal position. When $w$ is completely immersed in water, $w_{1}$ needs to be kept at a distance $l_{2}$ from the mid-point to get the rod back into a horizontal position. The specific gravity of the metal piece is
