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 0.02450.0245 kg, 0.01470.0147 kg, 0.02390.0239 kg, and 0.01230.0123 kg. At this very instant, the x‑ and y‑components of the mice's velocities are, respectively, (0.515 m/s,−0.719 m/s), (−0.857 m/s,−0.215 m/s), (0.395 m/s,0.963 m/s), and (−0.743 m/s,0.759 m/s).
