An airplane of mass 17,000 kg is flying over level ground at a constant altitude of 4.30 km with a constant velocity of 170 m/s west. Its direction is currently straight toward the top of a mountain. At a particular nstant, a house is directly below the plane at ground level. (a) At this instant, what is the magnitude of the plane's angular momentum relative to the house (in kg · m2/s)? kg - m2/s (b) As the plane continues its constant velocity motion, how does the angular momentum vector relative to the house change? O The magnitude of the angular momentum vector stays the same, but the direction changes. O The direction of the angular momentum vector stays the same, but the magnitude changes. O Both the magnitude and direction of the angular momentum vector change. O Both the magnitude and direction of the angular momentum vector stay the same.
