A cylindrical can of diameter 10.0 cm contains some ballast so that it floats vertically in water. The mass of can and ballast is 800.0 g, and the density of water is 1.00 g/cm3. The can is lifted 1.00 cm from its equilibrium position and released at t = 0. Find its vertical displacement from equilibrium as a function of time. Determine the period of the motion. Ignore the damping effect due to the viscosity of the water.
