Answer:
the answer is A.
Explanation:
Using the laws of newton:
∑F = ma
where ∑F is the sumatory of forces acting in the system, m the mass and a the acelertion of the system.
Then, if the block is moving with constant velocity, its aceleration is equal to 0, so:
∑F = m(0)
∑F = 0
It means that:
F - = 0
where F is the force applied and is the friction force. Replacing the value of F, we get:
310N - = 0
Finally, solving for :
The astronaut will move at 0.4 m/s in the opposite direction to the wrench
Explanation:
We can solve this problem by using the law of conservation of momentum. In fact, the total momentum of the astronaut-wrench system must be conserved before and after the launch.
Before the launch, the total momentum is zero, since the astronaut is at rest:
p = 0 (1)
After the launch, the total momentum is:
(2)
where :
m = 2 kg is the mass of the wrench
v = 10 m/s is the velocity of the wrench
M = 50 kg is the mass of the astronaut
V is the recoil velocity of the astronaut
Since momentum is conserved, we can write (1) = (2), and so we can solve for V:
And the negative sign means that the astronaut will move in the opposite direction to the wrench.
