You have an ultra-precision balance scale with a 1 pound (4.448N) solid gold cube on one side, balanced by a 1 pound cube ofAluminum on the other. After perfectly balancing the scale, you puta large glass cover (called a bell jar) over the scale and suck outall of the air with a vacuum pump, leaving essentially 0 psi of airpressure inside the bell jar. The question is will the Aluminumside A) Rise, B) Lower or C) Stay in the same position? Explainyour answer in detail (words, equations….whatever you think isadequate).
