A gold doubloon 6.1 cm in diameter and 2.0mm thick is dropped over the side of a Pirate Ship. When it comes to rest on the ocean floor at a depth of 770m how much has its volume changed​

Respuesta :

The volume of a material is the total amount of matter that it can contain. The volume of the given coin has been determined to be 5.85 x [tex]10^{-6}[/tex] [tex]m^{3}[/tex]. Since the gold doubloon do not absorb water, then its volume remains constant at the ocean floor.

The volume of the gold doubloon can be determined by;

volume = [tex]\pi r^{2}[/tex] + h

where r is the radius of the coin and h is its thickness.

Such that; diameter = 6.1 cm (61 mm) and h = 2.0 mm

r = [tex]\frac{diameter}{2}[/tex]

 = [tex]\frac{61}{2}[/tex]

r = 30.5 mm

Thus,

volume of the coin = [tex]\frac{22}{7}[/tex] x [tex](30.5)^{2}[/tex] x 2

                               = 5847.2857

Therefore, the volume of the gold doubloon is 5847.3 [tex]mm^{3}[/tex]. This can also be expressed as 5.85 x [tex]10^{-6}[/tex] [tex]m^{3}[/tex].

Since the gold doubloon is  not miscible with water, thus its volume at a depth of 770 m at the ocean floor is the same as its initial volume.
