Do you know the mass of the car?
Explanation:
Here we will apply the law of conservation of momentum which is one of the powerful laws of physics. As this law states that the "if no external forces are acting on the system then the net momentum of the system before and after must remain conserved. As the astronaut has a hammer, if he throws it in the direction opposite of his space craft, he will automatically move towards the space craft to conserve the momentum. That's how he can reach the space craft easily by throwing away the hammer.
Below are the answers:
(a) Ep = mass x gravitational acceleration x height
<span>= 2kg x 9.8ms-2 x 3m </span>
<span>= 58.8J </span>
<span>(b) F = mg </span>
<span>= 2kg x 9.8ms-2 </span>
<span>= 19.6N </span>
<span>W = Fd </span>
<span>= 19.6N x 3m </span>
<span>= 58.8J
</span>
Thank you for posting your question here at brainly. I hope the answer will help you. Feel free to ask more questions.
The correct answer is C. Since that really was a tricky question I made sure it was correct by checking on Google. Hope I helped! - Amber
Hi there!
In this instance, the object spinning in a horizontal circle will experience a net force in the horizontal direction due to tension.
The net force is equivalent to the centripetal force, so:
∑F = T
mv²/r = T
Solve for v:
v = √rT/m
v = 13.96 m/s
