Rchimedes suspect that the kings crown is not solid gold


You, Archimedes, suspect that the king?s crown is not solid gold but is instead gold-plated lead. To test your theory, you weigh the crown, and find it to weigh 60.0 N, and to have an apparent weight of 55.8 N when it is completely submerged in water. Take the density of gold to be 19300 kg/m^3, the density of lead to be 11340 kg/m^3, and the density of water to be 1000 kg/m3. Also, use g = 9.8 m/s^2.

What is the average density of the crown?

(kg/m^3)
