A light spring of constant k=85.0 N/m is attached vertically to a table. A 2.01−g balloon is filled with helium (density =0.179 kg/m3 ) to a volume of 4.98 m3 and is then connected with a light cord to the spring, causing the spring to stretch as shown in the figure below. Determine the extension distance L when the balloon is in equilibrium. (Assume the density of air is 1.20 kg/m3 ) m
