Answer:

The resistance needs to be increased by a factor of 25 to quadruple the amount of heat generated

Explanation:

Let H be the heat generated by the stove element, V its voltage and R its resistance.

So, H ∝ V²/R

H = kV²/R

HR/V² = k

H₁R₁/V₁² = H₂R₂/V₂²

If H₂ = 4H₁ and V₂ = 10V₁

H₁R₁/V₁² = 4H₁R₂/(10V₁)²

H₁R₁/V₁² = 4H₁R₂/100V₁²

R₁ = R₂/25

R₂ = 25R₁

The resistance needs to be increased by a factor of 25 to quadruple the amount of heat generated.

ankoles [38]

Elements of art are stylistic features that are included within an art piece to help the artist communicate. The seven most common elements include line, shape, texture, form, space, colour and value, with the additions of mark making, and materiality.

You would create a darker value if you shaded it, shading it makes it darker.
