See a solution process below:

We can rewrite this expression as:

#2sqrt(4v^6 * 5v)#

Now, use this rule for radicals to complete the simplification:

#sqrt(color(red)(a) * color(blue)(b)) = sqrt(color(red)(a)) * sqrt(color(blue)(b))#

#2sqrt(color(red)(4v^6) * color(blue)(5v)) => 2sqrt(color(red)(4v^6)) * sqrt(color(blue)(5v)) => (2 * 2v^3)sqrt(5v) => 4v^3sqrt(5v)#

#=4v^3sqrt5v#

#2sqrt(20v^7)#

#:.=2sqrt(2*2*5*v*v*v*v*v*v*v#

#:.sqrtaxxsqrta=a#

#:.=2*2*v^3sqrt(5v)#

#:.=4v^3sqrt(5v)#
