Bryce, a mouse lover, keeps his four pet mice in a roomy cage, where they spend much of their spare time joyfully scampering about on the cage's floor. Bryce tracks his mice's health diligently and just now recorded their masses as m₁ = 0.0145 kg, n2 = 0.0141 kg, m3 = 0.0245 kg, and m4 = 0.0105 kg. At this very instant, the x and y components (Ux, Uy) of the mice's velocities are, respectively, (U₁x, U₁,y) = (0.591 m/s, -0.425 m/s,) (v2.x, U2,y) = (-0.605 m/s, -0.933 m/s,) (v3,x, V3,y) = (0.259 m/s, 0.305 m/s), and (U4.x, U4,y) = (-0.211 m/s, 0.569 m/s). Calculate the x and y components px and py of Bryce's mice's total momentum.
