To calculate the momentum of the dog, we can use the formula for momentum, which is given by:

\[ \text{momentum} (p) = \text{mass} (m) \times \text{velocity} (v) \]

Given:

  • Mass of the dog \( m = 180 , \text{kg} \)
  • Velocity of the dog \( v = 0.63 , \text{m/s} \)

Now, substituting the values into the formula:

\[ p = 180 , \text{kg} \times 0.63 , \text{m/s} = 113.4 , \text{kg} \cdot \text{m/s} \]

Thus, the momentum of the dog is 113.4 kg*m/s.
