The right option is; b. the water caused an increase in temperature of the air inside the ball and an increase in pressure.

The dent (hollow area formed by pressing or hitting) from the ping-pong ball disappeared because energy was transferred from the hot boiling water in which the ball was placed to the air inside the ball. This transferred energy will increase the temperature of the air inside the ball and the air molecules will begin to move faster with a greater force. Hence, causing an increase in pressure.

Answer:

Steroids are prescribed to treat the condition of inadequate testosterone production, to treat the injury, and to initiate puberty. Some of the potential side effects of steroids are that in males it can cause reduction in sperm count, and shrinkage of testicles. While in women, it can cause the growth of body hair and can reduce the size of breasts.

Diuretics help to reduce the amount of fluid in the blood vessels, which further helps to lower the blood pressure. Some of the side effects of diuretics are fatigue, muscle cramps, irregular heartbeat, dehydration, and even death.  

Creatine assists in making muscles to produce more ATP and delay muscle fatigue. Some of the side effects are stomach and muscle cramps, diarrhea, nausea, weight gain, and water retention.  

Stimulants help to reduce fatigue, better alertness and suppress appetite. Some of the side effects are nervousness, irritability, increased blood pressure, insomnia, hallucinations, and heart attack.  

Boron is used in the treatment of osteoarthritis, enhances the levels of testosterone, and for better muscle coordination and better-thinking skills. Some of the side effects of boron are diarrhea, dermatitis, discoloration of feces, vomiting, nausea, and upper abdominal pain.
