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). Calculate the x‑ and y‑components of Bryce's mice's total momentum, px and py.

Earth astronomers measure that two novas (sudden brightening of a star) occur simultaneously, one in the constellation Orion and the other in the constellation Lyra. Each is 2.5×103c·y from Earth, but in opposite directions. Observers in aspacecraft flying at 1000 km/h on a line from Orion to Lyra measure one nova to occurbefore the other. (a) Which nova occurs first? (b) How much time separates the twonovas? Assume Earth is an inertial reference frame.
