Density is the ratio of a substance's mass to its volume. On the other hand, according to Archimedes' principle, the volume of water displaced is equal to the volume of the object placed on the water. Thus, the density of the metal is equal to 8.39 mL. So, the density would be
Density = 32.5 g/8.39 mL = 3.87 g/mL
Answer: a) 127 eV; b) there is no change of kinetic energy.
Explanation: In order to explain this problem we have to use the change of potentail energy ( conservative field) is equal to changes in kinetic energy. So for the proton ther move to lower potential then they gain kinetic energy from the electric field. This means the electric force do work in this trayectory and then the protons increased changes its speed.
If we replace the proton by a electron we have a very different situaction, the electrons are located in a lower potental then they can not move to higher potential if any external force does work on the system.
In resumem, the electrons do not move from a point with V=87 to other point with V=-40 V. The electric force point to high potential so the electrons can not move to lower potential region (V=-40V).
