How is a diamond matched with I understand a diamond
certificate, 4 C's etc. But
what is to stop someone just
selling a lower grade diamond
with a certificate for a
different, higher grade
diamond?
I have heard that some have a
number laser etched on the
diamond which corresponds with
the certificate, which is
fine. Do all certificated
diamonds have this? Will an
EGL certified diamond have
this for example?

No, not all certified stones have laser inscriptions. And most EGL certs aren't worth the paper they're written on Each diamond has distinct individual characteristics (feathers, cracks, inclusions, etc) which can be mapped out on an appraisal. So, before you buy a stone, ask if there is a map to go with the cert (most do) and look at the stone yourself under the scope. Even if there is # inscribed on the stone, those can be done outside of the lab, so you still really need to check the stone yourself, if you're that concerned. However, why on earth would you give your money to a jeweler you didn't trust? Stay away from chain stores and anything in the mall... find a local, independent jeweler, someone reputable and recommended by others, before you drop a single penny good luck! |

How long after the first Two diamonds begin a free fall
from rest from the same
height, 1.9 s apart. How long
after the first diamond begins
to fall will the two diamonds
be 24 m apart?

There is not enough information to answer the question. In a vacuum, the rate of acceleration due to gravity G is 9.8 meters per second at sea level. So after the first second, the first object would be 9.8 meters from the second object which is still at rest. After 1.9 seconds, the first object would be 27.4 meters from the second object. It doesn't matter what the objects are - they could be feathers or bricks - in a vacuum. Diamonds have a specific gravity of 3.5, which is important because of the effects of friction from the atmosphere. You would have to provide the pressure altitude, temperature, and humidity of the atmosphere, as well as coefficient of drag of the diamonds, because drag of the atmosphere would affect the rate of fall of the diamonds. You would also need to know the. |
