Question 2. 1. Jack and Rose had to abandon the ship the R.M.S. Titanic when it sank in the North Atlantic. Rose managed to climb onto a door which was floating on the ocean's surface. The door has dimensions of 2.2m x 1.2m x 0.07m and is made of American Red Oak which has a density of 740 kg.m3. Jack's mass is 75kg and Rose's mass is 63kg, assuming that the density of ice cold salt water is 1000 kg.m3 - Could the door support them both until a lifeboat arrives? II. If they attached two lifejackets with a buoyancy force of 5.58 Newtons to the bottom of the door, how much larger would the combined buoyancy force be? I.

Archimedes established his principle while investigating a suspected fraud in the construction of a crown. The crown was made from an alloy of gold and silver instead of pure gold. Assume that the volume of the alloy was the combined volumes of components (the density of gold is 19.3g/cm3 ), (the density of silver is 10.5g/cm3). If the crown had a weight of 9.81 N in air and 9.10 N in pure water, what percentage of gold (by weight) was it? A. 53.1% B. 67.4% C. 81.2% D. 91.3%
