Paraphin [41]1 year ago

When an astronaut leaves a spaceship that is moving through free space, the spaceship does not move off and leave the astronaut behind.

This is because when the astronaut is inside the spaceship, which is moving in free space, the astronaut also has the same velocity as the spaceship. Hence, when he leaves the spaceship, there is no relative velocity between the spaceship and the astronaut. This is the reason why the spaceship will not move off and leave the astronaut behind.

A spaceship or a spacecraft is an especially designed vehicle that is used to travel to outer space. It can be used for space exploration, transportation of humans and cargo, and meteorological purposes.

An astronaut is a person who has undergone specific training to travel to space. The duties of an astronaut aboard a spaceship can vary. Usually, a pilot and a commander work together to lead the mission. Other positions could be science pilot, mission expert, payload commander, and flight engineer.

Given:

m = 0.14 kg

v = 18 m/s

To find:

Kinetic energy= ?

Explanation:

Kinetic energy of the object is possessed when the object is in motion. It is define as the work done required to accelerate a body from rest to motion. Unit of energy is Joule and it is same as unit of work done. Energy is nothing but the capacity to do work.

Solution:

Kinetic energy of the ball is given by,

Kinetic energy = \frac{1}{2}m v^{2}

m = 0.14 kg

v = 18 m/s

Kinetic energy = \frac{1}{2}(0.14) (18)^{2}

Kinetic energy = 226.8 Joule

What is the two different atoms in a ring
snow_tiger [21]

Answer:

If two or more atoms of the same element combine, they produce a molecule, for example, H2, O2, O3, etc.

If, however, two (or more) atoms of different elements combine, they produce a compound, for example, NO, CO, FeS, NaCl, etc. The compound may be called a molecule if it is made of independent units, such as NO and CO. However, FeS and NaCl are not molecules because there is no independent unit made of one atom of Fe and a single atom of sulfur or a single unit of Na and Cl. These compound are made of a network of large number of ions of Fe^+2 and S^-2 and Na^+1 and Cl^-1 as a ionic crystallines. If you could isolate a single FeS or NaCl (for example in the gaseous state) you could call them also molecules.
