Step 1
1 of 7We are given that the crown has a mass of kg. When submerged in water, a force of N is needed to prevent the object from sinking.
We should tell if the crown of pure gold or not. To do this, we should calculate the crown's density, and if it the same as that of gold, then the crown is indeed pure gold.
