The question involves a ping-pong ball that is held submerged in a bucket by a string attached to the bottom of the bucket.

The answer is the tension of the string will increase. This is because making the water salty increases its density, and consequently, increases its buoyancy. This is why sea water is more buoyant than fresh water. Therefore the ping pong is pushed more upwards by the water when salt is added than initially. This gives the string more tension.

Find your mass if a scale on earth reads 650 N when you stand on it.
netineya [11]

Weight = (mass) x (gravity)

Acceleration of gravity on Earth = 9.8 m/s²

                                           Weight on Earth = (mass) x (9.8 m/s²)

Divide each side by  (9.8 m/s²):          Mass = (weight) / (9.8 m/s²)

                                                            Mass = (650 N) / (9.8 m/s²)

                                                           Mass = 66.33 kg  (rounded)

If a proton is moved a certain distance directly opposite an external electric field, what can we say about the change in the el
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

Potential energy increases.

Explanation:

We know that the direction of electric field is from positive to negative charge. As the proton has the positive charge so if it moves in the direction opposite of electric field, it means that the positive charge will move towards the positive region. As the positive charge is attracted towards negative and repelled by the positive charge. So the work done will be negative in bringing the positive charge towards the positive region of the field and potential energy increases in the direction opposite to electric field. As the potential energy decreases in the direction of electric field.
