A uniform cylinder of length $L$ and mass $M$ having cross-sectional area $A$ is suspended, with its length vertical, from a fixed point by a mass-less spring such that it is half submerged in a liquid of density $\sigma $ at equilibrium position. The extension ${x_0}$ of the spring when it is in equilibrium is:

Question

${{Mg} \over k}$

${{Mg} \over k}\left( {1 - {{LA\sigma } \over M}} \right)$

${{Mg} \over k}\left( {1 - {{LA\sigma } \over {2M}}} \right)$

${{Mg} \over k}\left( {1 + {{LA\sigma } \over M}} \right)$
