The cylinder shown is supported by an incompressible liquid of density \(ho\), and is hinged along its length. The cylinder, of mass \(M\), length \(L\), and radius \(R\), is immersed in liquid to depth \(H\). Obtain a general expression for the cylinder specific gravity versus the ratio of liquid depth to cylinder radius, \(\alpha=H / R\), needed to hold the cylinder in equilibrium for \(0 \leq \alpha
