Assuming that there is no heat loss, and the cup is perfectly insulated, all of the energy lost by the lead will be absorbed by the water.
The heat absorbed is given by:
Energy = mass * specific heat capacity * change in temperature
The specific heat capacity of water is 4.18 joules per gram.

In order to compute the mass, we will use the fact that the density of water is one gram per milliliter. Therefore, the mass of water is 50 grams.

Now,
Q = 50 * 4.18 * (20 - 18)
Q = 418 J

418 Joules of energy were released by the lead.

can you help me create a sketch of two different objects with one that has a greater density than the other?
sergey [27]

I don't know how good you are at sketching ... I'm terrible. 
But you can put the point across in a dramatic way if you
can sketch a bowling ball and a basketball ... you'll need
to clearly identify them with the markings you sketch on
each ball. 

They're the same shape and nearly the same size, but
there's a huge difference in their densities.

Basile [38]

Answer

Gravity is what holds us down on the earth's (or moon's) surface. If you were to weigh yourself on a scale on Earth and then on the moon, the weight read on the moon would be 1/6 your earth weight
