The densities of the liquids A and B are 0.7g/cm^3 and 1.2g/cm^3, respectively. The height of liquid A is hA=1.2cm. The length of the part of the cylinder immersed in liquid B is hB=0.8cm. (a) Find the total force exerted by liquid A on the cylinder. (b) Find h, the length of the part of the cylinder in air. (c) The cylinder is depressed in such a way that its top surface is just below the upper surface of liquid A and is then released. Find the acceleration of the cylinder immediately after it is released.
