Bryce, 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 0.0235 kg, 0.0223 kg, 0.0175 kg, and 0.0239 kg. At this very instant, the x- and y-components of the mice's velocities are, respectively, (0.341 m/s, -0.201 m/s), (-0.441 m/s, -0.249 m/s), (0.645 m/s, 0.441 m/s), and (-0.203 m/s, 0.925 m/s). Calculate the x- and y-components of Bryce's mice's total momentum, p, and py. Pr = kg-m/s Py= kg-m/s

Two asteroids of equal mass in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter collide with a glancing blow. Asteroid A, which was initially traveling at vA1 = 40.0 m/s with respect to an inertial frame in which asteroid B was at rest, is deflected 30.0 from its original direction, while asteroid B travels at 45.0 to the original direction of A, as shown in (Figure 1). Find the speed of asteroids A and B after the collision. What fraction of the original kinetic energy of asteroid A dissipates during this collision?
