Answer:
303 Ω
Explanation:
Given
Represent the resistors with R1, R2 and RT
R1 = 633
RT = 205
Required
Determine R2
Since it's a parallel connection, it can be solved using.
1/Rt = 1/R1 + 1/R2
Substitute values for R1 and RT
1/205 = 1/633 + 1/R2
Collect Like Terms
1/R2 = 1/205 - 1/633
Take LCM
1/R2 = (633 - 205)/(205 * 633)
1/R2 = 428/129765
Take reciprocal of both sides
R2 = 129765/428
R2 = 303 --- approximated
Answer:
Explanation: Decreasing in velocity
Although the semi truck certainly has a larger mass, it is not in motion and therefore does not have any momentum. The bicycle however has both mass and velocity and therefore has the larger momentum of the pair.
