Answer:

Silver

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the volume of the coin

<u>Volume of a cylinder</u>

\textsf{V}=\sf \pi r^2 h \quad\textsf{(where r is the radius and h is the height)}

Given:

  • r = 1.5 cm
  • h = 0.25 cm

Substituting given values into the formula to find the volume:

\sf \implies V=\pi (1.5)^2(0.25)

\sf \implies V=0.5625 \pi \:cm^3

Find the density of the coin given it has a measured mass of 18.54 g

<u>Density formula</u>

\sf \rho=\dfrac{m}{V}

where:

  • \rho = density
  • m = mass
  • V = volume

Given:

  • m = 18.54 g
  • \sf V=0.5625 \pi \:cm^3

Substituting given values into the density formula:

\implies \sf \rho=\dfrac{18.54}{0.5625 \pi}

\implies \sf \rho=10.49149385\:g\:cm^{-3}

Given:

  • \textsf{Density of Lead}=\sf 11.3\:g\:cm^{-3}
  • \textsf{Density of Silver}=\sf 10.49\:g\:cm^{-3}

Therefore, as \sf \rho=10.49\:g\:cm^{-3} the coin is made from silver.

<u>Geometry</u>

  • Radius: r = d/2
  • Surface Area of a Sphere: SA = 4πr²

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

d = 19 cm

<u>Step 2: Find </u><em><u>SA</u></em>

  1. Substitute [R]:                    r = 19 cm/2
  2. Divide:                                r = 9.5 cm
  3. Substitute [SAS]:               SA = 4π(9.5 cm)²
  4. Exponents:                        SA = 4π(90.25 cm²)
  5. Multiply:                             SA = 361π cm²
  6. Multiply:                             SA = 1134.11 cm²
  7. Round:                               SA ≈ 1134 cm²
