Average Momentum (Part 2)
Suppose there is a huge collection of particles whose masses and one-dimensional velocities are distributed uniformly as a function of area according to the density plot shown above. The plot is a right triangle whose short sides are of length 1.
What is the average particle momentum?
Note: The diagram is a distribution function/graph, not an actual physical object.
The answer is 0.08333.
