Question
The answer is also not .0126 and .0194
ALSO NOT .0126 and .0194
yce, a mouse lover, keeps his four pet mice in a roomy cage, where they spend much of their spare time-when they're not sleeping or eating-joyfully scampering about on the cage's floor. Bryce tracks his mice's health diligently and just now recorded their masses as 0.0145 kg, 0.0219 kg, 0.0203 kg, and 0.0217 kg. At this very instant the x and y components of the mice's velocities are, respectively, (0.139 m/s, -0.307 m/s), (-0.701 m/s, -0.881 m/s), (0.859 m/s, 0.491 m/s), and (-0.243 m/s, 0.729 m/s). Calculate the x and y components of Bryce's mice's total momentum, p x and p y.Explanation / Answer
px=0.0145*0.139+0.0219*(-0.701)+0.0203*0.859+0.0217*(-0.243)
=-1.17*10^-3 kg-m/s
py=0.0145*(-0.307)+0.0219*(-0.881)+0.0203*0.859+0.0217*(0.729)
=9.51*10^-3 kg-m/s ans
