Explanation:
Convection requires a fluid material that can move around. Typically, metals are solid, not fluid, and therefore do not participate in convection. ... This means that metal can be either a good heat shield, a mediocre heat shield, or a bad heat shield, depending on how we use it.
The speed of sound is given by the formula
Speed of sound = square root (Young's Modulus/density)
Young's modulus for gold = 78 GPa which is 7.8 * 10^10 Pa
Speed of sound = (7.8 * 10^10 / 19.3 ) = sqrt (4.04 * 10^9 )
Speed of sound = 6.36 * 10^4 m/s <<<=== answer.
Actually, the
uncertainty point is when we have to estimate one place smaller than what the
graduated cylinder can accurately read. So in this case, the smallest that we
can accurately read is given by the minor marks of 0.2 mL. So if it is in
between two minor marks we can only estimate the number, therefore the
uncertainty is +/- 0.1ml.
