Answer:
The height is 
A circular hoop of different diameter cannot be released from a height 30cm and match the sphere speed because from the conservation relation the speed of the hoop is independent of the radius (Hence also the diameter )
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The height is 
The angle of the slope is 
According to the law of conservation of energy
The potential energy of the sphere at the top of the slope = Rotational kinetic energy + the linear kinetic energy

Where I is the moment of inertia which is mathematically represented as this for a sphere

The angular velocity
is mathematically represented as

So the equation for conservation of energy becomes
![mgh_s = \frac{1}{2} [\frac{2}{5} mr^2 ][\frac{v}{r} ]^2 + \frac{1}{2}mv^2](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=mgh_s%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%20%5B%5Cfrac%7B2%7D%7B5%7D%20mr%5E2%20%5D%5B%5Cfrac%7Bv%7D%7Br%7D%20%5D%5E2%20%2B%20%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7Dmv%5E2)
![mgh_s = \frac{1}{2} mv^2 [\frac{2}{5} +1 ]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=mgh_s%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%20mv%5E2%20%5B%5Cfrac%7B2%7D%7B5%7D%20%2B1%20%5D)
![mgh_s = \frac{1}{2} mv^2 [\frac{7}{5} ]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=mgh_s%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%20mv%5E2%20%5B%5Cfrac%7B7%7D%7B5%7D%20%5D)
![gh_s =[\frac{7}{10} ] v^2](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=gh_s%20%3D%5B%5Cfrac%7B7%7D%7B10%7D%20%5D%20v%5E2)

Considering a circular hoop
The moment of inertial is different for circle and it is mathematically represented as

Substituting this into the conservation equation above
![mgh_c = \frac{1}{2} (mr^2)[\frac{v}{r} ] ^2 + \frac{1}{2} mv^2](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=mgh_c%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%20%28mr%5E2%29%5B%5Cfrac%7Bv%7D%7Br%7D%20%5D%20%5E2%20%2B%20%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%20mv%5E2)
Where
is the height where the circular hoop would be released to equal the speed of the sphere at the bottom



Recall that 


Substituting values

Answer:
505929 AU
Explanation:
As you may know, one light-year is equivalent to approximately 63241.1 Astronomical Units. To get your answer, simply multiply 63241.1 * 8 to get ≈505929 AU
The answer is A.
Acceleration means when you go faster in speed. Since the bicyclist is turning, he has to slow down but when he finishes turning, he is going to pedal harder and gain more speed. This is called Acceleration.
Best of Luck!
Heat, like sound, is kinetic energy. Molecules at higher temperatures heave more energy, thus they can vibrate faster. Since the molecules vibrate faster, sound waves can travel more quickly.
So the answer is A.
