$A$ block of wood is floating on water at $0^{\circ} C$ with volume $V_0$ above water. When the temperature of water increases from $0^{\circ} C$ to $10^{\circ} C$,the change in the volume of the block that is above water is best described schematically by which graph?

$A$ cylindrical block of area of cross-section $A$ and of material of density $\rho$ is placed in a liquid of density one-third of the density of the block. The block compresses a spring,and the compression in the spring is one-third of the length of the block. If the acceleration due to gravity is $g$,the spring constant of the spring is:
