Let's calculate the momentum of Fiona, given by the product between its mass and its speed:
p=mv=(313 kg)(8 m/s)=2504 kg m/s

Now let's compare it with the momentum of the other animals:
a) the mass of the sea turtle is missing, so we cannot calculate its momentum.
b) the momentum of the dolphin is 
p=mv=(150 kg)(18 m/s)=2700 kg m/s
c) the momentum of the horse is
p=mv=(380 kg)(4 m/s)=1520 kg m/s
d) the momentum of the lion is
p=mv=(190 kg)(11 m/s)=2090 m/s

And we can see that the correct answer is b), because the momentum of the dolphin is greater than the momentum of Fiona.

Dmitry [639]

Answer:

10.15Ω

Explanation:

From ohm's law,

V = IR...................... Equation 1

Where V = Voltage, I = current, R = resistance.

Assume the voltage across the resistance = V,

Given: I = 6.3 A

Substitute into equation 1

V = 6.3R.................. Equation 2

When an additional resistance of 3.4 Ω is inserted in series with R,

The voltage remain the same, but the current changes

Total Resistance(Rt) = (R+3.4)Ω, I' = 4.72 A

Also from ohm' law,

V = I'Rt............... Equation 3

Substitute the value of I'  and Rt into equation 3

V = 4.72(R+3.4)............... Equation 5.

Divide equation 2 by equation 5

V/V = 6.3R/4.72(R+3.4)

1 = 1.335R/(R+3.4)

1 = 1.335R/(R+3.4)

R+3.4 = 1.335R

3.4 = 1.335R-R

3.4 = 0.335R

R = 3.4/0.335

R = 10.15Ω
