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

A 49-year-old female was referred for mammography, but she is very apprehensive after reading about the risk of ionizing radiati

SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

Mammography is the process in which low energy radiations are used to diagnose and screening. The purpose of this process is the early detection of the breast cancer. These low energy radiations may have some risks like damaging and burning of cells.

In the current scenario, woman is apprehensive because she has read about the risks of using ionizing radiations. The radiographer should tell her the benefits of the mammography will outweigh its potential consequences. Screening, for instance, will let her know if she is suffering from breast cancer. Cancer is very dangerous disease as compare to very small burning.

In this way radiographer should handle the situation.

Which wave must have a medium to travel?

o-na [289]

Letter B

without a medium, there is nothing to compress, hence, no wave. A fast- medium like a gas (air) is easy to compress and allows waves to move through it easily. a slow medium, like a liquid, is still pretty fast, but not as fast as air.
