Answer:

<em>Correct choice: b 4H</em>

Explanation:

<u>Conservation of the mechanical energy</u>

The mechanical energy is the sum of the gravitational potential energy GPE (U) and the kinetic energy KE (K):

E = U + K

The GPE is calculated as:

U = mgh

And the kinetic energy is:

\displaystyle K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

Where:

m = mass of the object

g = gravitational acceleration

h = height of the object

v = speed at which the object moves

When the snowball is dropped from a height H, it has zero speed and therefore zero kinetic energy, thus the mechanical energy is:

U_1 = mgH

When the snowball reaches the ground, the height is zero and the GPE is also zero, thus the mechanical energy is:

\displaystyle U_2=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

Since the energy is conserved, U1=U2

\displaystyle mgH=\frac{1}{2}mv^2    \qquad\qquad [1]

For the speed to be double, we need to drop the snowball from a height H', and:

\displaystyle mgH'=\frac{1}{2}m(2v)^2

Operating:

\displaystyle mgH'=4\frac{1}{2}m(v)^2 \qquad\qquad [2]

Dividing [2] by [1]

\displaystyle \frac{mgH'}{mgH}=\frac{4\frac{1}{2}m(v)^2}{\frac{1}{2}m(v)^2}

Simplifying:

\displaystyle \frac{H'}{H}=4

Thus:

H' = 4H

Correct choice: b 4H

Please help with science! Describe the magnetic field in the vicinity of a bar magnet.
Katen [24]
The magnetic field is described mathematically as a vector field<span>. This vector field can be plotted directly as a set of many vectors drawn on a grid. Each vector points in the direction that a compass would point and has length dependent on the strength of the magnetic force. </span>

What changes must be done to the wire to increase its conductance.​
777dan777 [17]

Answer:

- Decreasing the resistance

- Using a shorter length

- Using a smaller area wire

Explanation:

Formula for conductance in wires is;

G = 1/R

Where;

G is conductance

R is resistance

This means that increasing the resistance leads to a larger denominator and thus a smaller conductance but to decrease the denominator means larger conductance.

Thus, to increase the conductance, we have to decrease the resistance.

Resistance here has a formula of;

R = ρL/A

Where;

ρ is resistivity

L is length of wire

A is area

Thus, to decrease the resistance, we will have to use a shorter length and smaller area of wire.
