Alarge piece of jewelry has a mass of 132.6 g. a graduated cylinder initially contains 48.6 ml water. when the jewelry is submerged in the graduated cylinder, the total volume increases to 61.2 ml. (a) determine the density of this piece of jewelry. (b) assuming that the jewelry is made from only one substance, what substance is it likely to be

The density of the substance is 10.5 g/cm³.

The jewelry is made out of Silver.

Density ρ is defined as the ratio of mass m of the substance to its volume V. The cylinder contains a volume V₁ of water and when the jewelry is immersed in it, the total volume of water and the jewelry is found to be V₂.

The volume V of the jewelry is given by,

Substitute 48.6 ml for V₁ and 61.2 ml for V₂.

calculate the density ρ of the jewelry using the expression,

Substitute 132.6 g for m and 12.6 ml for V.

Since ,

The density of the jewelry is 10.5 g/cm³.

From standard tables, it can be seen that the substance used to make the jewelry is silver, which has a density 10.5 g/cm³.

the design of a ski jumping suit involves a trade-off between giving the skiers lift to get higher jumps and ensuring the skier does not face a lot of drag before the jump itself. an expansive suit may to lift the skier higher, but at the same time, it will also increase the air resistance. higher air resistance as the skier goes down the slope limits the speed of the jump. a big suit also increases the risk of losing balance or control, especially if there's a strong gust of wind. while technologically enhanced suits a lot, clothing is not the only factor in a ski jumper’s success. gathering speed while skiing down the slope, ensuring good speed on the ramp, and maintaining good body posture and form in the air all contribute to a ski jumper's success.
