To calculate the momentum of the biker, we use the formula for linear momentum:<br /><br />\[<br />p = mv<br />\]<br /><br />Where:<br />- \( p \) is the momentum,<br />- \( m \) is the mass of the object (in kilograms),<br />- \( v \) is the velocity of the object (in meters per second).<br /><br />### Given:<br />- Mass (\( m \)) = \( 75 \, \text{kg} \),<br />- Velocity (\( v \)) = \( 5 \, \text{m/s} \) due east.<br /><br />Substitute the values into the formula:<br /><br />\[<br />p = 75 \times 5 = 375 \, \text{kg·m/s}.<br />\]<br /><br />The direction of the momentum is the same as the direction of the velocity, which is **east**.<br /><br />### Final Answer:<br />\[<br />\boxed{375 \, \text{kg·m/s east}}<br />\]
