An unladen swallow that weighs 0.03 kg flies straight northeast a distance of 125 km in 4.0 hours. With the x x direction due east and the y y direction due north, what is the average momentum of the bird (in unit vector notation)?

The average momentum of the bird is 0.26 kgm/s

Explanation:

The formula to be used here is that of momentum which is

momentum (in kgm/s) = mass (in kg) × velocity (in m/s)

The velocity of the bird is

velocity (in m/s) = distance (in meter) ÷ time (in seconds)

distance in meters = 125km × 1000 = 125,000 m

time in seconds = 4 hrs × 60 × 60 = 14,400 secs

velocity = 125000/14400

velocity = 8.68 m/s

momentum (p) = 0.03 × 8.68

p = 0.26 kgm/s

The average momentum of the bird is 0.26 kgm/s
