An accomplished silversmith needs an extremely thin sheet of silver. If he starts with a 2.70-kg sheet of silver, and pounds it to a thickness of 5.00 10-7 m (a small fraction of the thickness of a sheet of paper), determine the area of the sheet he has formed. Use 10.1 ⨯ 103 kg/m3 as the density of silver.
An airplane passenger has a volume V1 of air in his stomach just before the plane takes off from a sea-level airport. a. What volume will this quantity of air have at cruising altitude at the same temperature (body temperature), in terms of V1, the pressure on the ground P1, and the cabin pressure at cruising altitude P2? b. What is this volume, in cubic centimeters, if the initial volume is 95 cm3 and the cabin pressure drops to 7.50 × 104 Pa when the plane is at cruising altitude?

2. You are manufacturing a can which is a perfect cylinder. The ideal volume of the can is 375 cm3. Since the bases of the cylinders are exactly 50 cm2, the volume of the can is V = 50h where h is the height of the can in centimeters. You need to cut the sides of the can so the volume has at most an error of 10 cm³. Give the range of heights the can could have and still meet the required specifications for its volume.
