Physics

A graduated cylinder filled with water rests upside down in acontainer of water at 0 C. The water is 7.00 cm deep. Attached tothe base of the cylinder is a small ring (but since the cylinder isupside down, the ring is at the highest elevation, available forgrabbing). The base of the cylinder has mass 10.0 grams with ringincluded. The cylinder itself has radius 3.00 cm, height 40.0 cm,and mass 100.0 grams (including the base and ring). Bridgette has ascale that can read hanging weight (but, as so often happens, readsin grams instead of Newtons). She hooks the scale to the ring onthe bottom of the cylinder and lifts, so that the base of thecylinder lifts 5.00 cm, but the other end of the cylinder remainsbeneath the surface of the water. She is amazed that the cylinderremains full of water, seemingly all the way to the base. What isthe reading on the scale? (The mass density of the cylindrical partof the graduated cylinder is 1.00 grams per cm3.)
