Solution

The total momentum of the girl and the bike together can be calculated using the formula for momentum, which is mass times velocity (p=mv).

First, we need to find the total mass of the girl and the bike. The girl's mass is 25 kg and the bike's mass is 5 kg. So, the total mass is 25 kg + 5 kg = 30 kg.

Next, we multiply the total mass by the velocity to find the total momentum. The velocity is given as 5 m/s. So, the total momentum is 30 kg * 5 m/s = 150 kg m/s.

So, the total momentum of the girl and the bike together is 150 kg m/s.
