A 5.4 -g jewel has an apparent weight of 32mN when submerged in water. Could the jewel be diamond?(density 3.51 g/cm3)
Please provide detailed steps on how you got your equation set up. Thanks!
Homework Answers
By Archimedes' principle,
is the density of
fluid on which the object is submerged, V is the volume of the
object submerged and g is acceleration due to gravity.
The jewel has mass 5.4 gm.
Hence, weight of the jewel is
Apparent weight is 32 mN
Jewel is submerged in water
Putting the values in our Archimedes' equation,
Hence, density of the jewel is,
This is not the density of diamond which has a density 3.51 gm/cc
Hence, the jewel is not made up of diamond.

According to legend, the following challenge led Archimedes to the discovery of his famous principle: Hieron, king of Syracuse, was suspicious that a new crownthat he had received from the royal goldsmith was not pure gold, as claimed. Archimedes was ordered to determine whether the crown was in fact made of pure gold, with the condition that only a nondestructive test would be allowed. Rather than answer the problem in the politically most expedient way (or perhaps extract a bribe...

Purpose: To calculate the apparent weight of a mass when immersed in water. Students will also have the opportunity to learn how to use calipers to accurately measure lenghs. Background: Archimedes discovered that he could find the density of an object by comparing it's weight o its apparent weight when immersed in water (see example 10-8 in he textbook).

19) Bird bones have air pockets in them to reduce their weight-this also gives them an average density significantly less than that of the bones of other animals. Suppose an ornithologist weighs a bird bone in air and in water and finds its mass is 45 g and its apparent mass when submerged is 3.6 g. The bone surface is...

Bird bones have air pockets in them to reduce their weight. This also gives them an average density significantly less than that of the bones of other animals. Suppose an ornithologist weighs a bird bone in air and in water and finds its mass is 44.0 g and its apparent mass when submerged is 3.60 g (the bone is watertight). PART 1: What mass of water is displaced? (kg) PART 2: What is the volume of the bone? (m^3) PART...
