A cubical block of wood of edge 3 cm floats in water. The lower surface of the cube just touches the free end of a vertical spring fixed at the bottom of the pot. Find the maximum weight that can be put on the block without wetting it. Density of wood =`800 kgm^-3` and spring constant of the spring `=50Nm^-1 Take g=10ms^-2`.
