Answer:
0.438kg/ms-¹
Explanation:
Momentum, denoted by p, can be calculated by using the formula;
p = mv
Where;
m = mass (kg)
v = velocity (m/s)
Momentum (p) of bird = 0.216 kg × 5.87 m/s = 1.268kg/ms-¹
Momentum (p) of crawling baby = 7.29 kg kg × 0.234 m/s = 1.706kg/ms-¹
Having calculated the momentum of the bird to be 1.268kg/ms-¹, and the momentum of the baby to be 1.706kg/ms-¹, the difference in momentum between the flying bird and the crawling baby is:
{1.706kg/ms-¹ - 1.268kg/ms-¹} = 0.438kg/ms-¹
