1. Ablockofmass M = 4kg, cross-sectional area A = 1 m^2, andheight h = 60 cm sits in a liquid with density ρ = 12 kg/m^3.

a) Find the depth d the block will sit in the water when inequilibrium.
b) At time t=0, the block is released from being completelysubmerged in the liquid, calculate the amplitude and frequency ofoscillation.
