There are two forces at play:
- The gravitational force acting downward due to the mass of the bucket and the water that it contains.
- The upward force that your hand exerts on the bucket.
If the magnitude of the force your hand exerts on the bucket equals the magnitude of the gravitational force, the bucket is in static equilibrium. That means the bucket is not moving and the forces acting on it balance each other out, making the net force 0.
Having 0 net force means the bucket doesn't undergo any acceleration, or change in motion.
Since you already gave us the weight of the 2.5-kg box,
we don't even need to know what the distance is, just
as long as it doesn't change.
Look at the formula for the gravitational force:
F = G m₁ m₂ / R² .
If 'G', 'm₁' (mass of the Earth), and 'R' (distance from the Earth's center)
don't change, then the Force is proportional to m₂ ... mass of the box,
and you can write a simple proportion:
(6.1 N) / (2.5 kg) = (F) / (1 kg)
Cross-multiply: (6.1 N) (1 kg) = (F) (2.5 kg)
Divide each side by (2.5 kg): F = (6.1N) x (1 kg) / (2.5 kg) = 2.44 N .

Answer:
No temperature change occurs from heat transfer if ice melts and becomes liquid water (i.e., during a phase change). For example, consider water dripping from icicles melting on a roof warmed by the Sun. Conversely, water freezes in an ice tray cooled by lower-temperature surroundings.
Explanation:
Energy is required to melt a solid because the cohesive bonds between the molecules in the solid must be broken apart such that, in the liquid, the molecules can move around at comparable kinetic energies; thus, there is no rise in temperature. Similarly, energy is needed to vaporize a liquid, because molecules in a liquid interact with each other via attractive forces. There is no temperature change until a phase change is complete. The temperature of a cup of soda initially at 0ºC stays at 0ºC until all the ice has melted. Conversely, energy is released during freezing and condensation, usually in the form of thermal energy. Work is done by cohesive forces when molecules are brought together. The corresponding energy must be given off (dissipated) to allow them to stay together Figure 2.
The energy involved in a phase change depends on two major factors: the number and strength of bonds or force pairs. The number of bonds is proportional to the number of molecules and thus to the mass of the sample. The strength of forces depends on the type of molecules. The heat Q required to change the phase of a sample of mass m is given by
Q = mLf (melting/freezing,
Q = mLv (vaporization/condensation),
where the latent heat of fusion, Lf, and latent heat of vaporization, Lv, are material constants that are determined experimentally.
