Given data
The mass of the sparrow is m = 30 g = 0.03 kg
The initial momentum on the sparrow is pi = 0.36 kgm/s
The initial speed of the sparrow is u = 12 m/s
The duration of the time interval is t = 12 s
The magnitude of the constant force is F = 0.02 N
The expression for the final momentum is given as:
[tex]\begin{gathered} F=\frac{p_f-p_i}{t} \\ p_f=F\times t+p_i \end{gathered}[/tex]
Substitute the value in the above equation.
[tex]\begin{gathered} p_f=0.02\text{ N}\times12\text{ s+0.36 kgm/s} \\ p_f=0.6\text{ kgm/s} \end{gathered}[/tex]
Thus, the final momentum of the sparrow is 0.6 kgm/s.
