An astronaut working with many tools some distance away from a spacecraft is stranded when the "maneuvering unit" malfunctions.

How can the astronaut return to the spacecraft by sacrificing some of the tools? (Note: the maneuvering unit is connected to the astronaut's spacesuit and is not removable)

Answer:

He can return to the spacecraft by sacrificing some of the tools employing the principle of conservation of momentum.

Explanation:

By carefully evaluating his direction back to the ship, the astronaut can throw some of his tools in the opposite direction to that. On throwing those tools of a certain mass, they travel at a certain velocity giving him velocity in the form of recoil in the opposite direction of the velocity of the tools. This is same as a gun and bullet recoil momentum conservation. It is also the principle on which the operational principles of their maneuvering unit is designed.

Answer:

1) The human skeleton performs six major functions: support, movement, protection, production of blood cells, storage of minerals, and endocrine regulation. protection of internal organs

2) Joints are where two bones meet. They make the skeleton flexible — without them, movement would be impossible. Joints allow our bodies to move in many ways.

3)A joint is a point where two or more bones meet. There are three main types of joints; Fibrous (immovable), Cartilaginous (partially moveable) and the Synovial (freely moveable) joint

4)A ligament is a fibrous connective tissue which attaches bone to bone, and usually serves to hold structures together and keep them stable.

Answer:

Electron shell

Nucleus

Neutrons

Explanation:

An atom is made up of three fundamental subatomic particles which are the protons, neutrons and electrons.

  • Protons are the positively charged particles. Neutrons do not carry any charges.
  • Both protons and neutrons are found in the tiny nucleus at the center of that atom.
  • The electrons are negatively charged.
  • They are found outside the nucleus in electronic shells.

Which term is undefined?
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

The term which is considered as being undefined is referred to as a point and is therefore denoted as option A in this context.

<h3>What is a Point?</h3>

This is defined as as small round mark written on a plane which signifies the position or location of a substance. This can also be seen as a dot and is also used to separate a group of numbers such as in the case of decimals etc.

It is referred to as being undefined alongside a plane, line etc as a result of it only being explained using specific examples and descriptions unlike a segment which can be viewed and understood easily when working on the parameter.

This is therefore the reason why a point is undefined and the most appropriate choice.

I have a hot air balloon that has 18.0 g helium gas inside of it. if the pressure is 2.00 atm and the temperature is 297k, what
Anastaziya [24]

M = molar mass of the helium gas = 4.0 g/mol

m = mass of the gas given = 18.0 g

n = number of moles of the gas

number of moles of the gas is given as

n = m/M

n = 18.0/4.0

n = 4.5 moles

P = pressure = 2.00 atm = 2.00 x 101325 Pa = 202650 Pa

V = Volume of balloon = ?

T = temperature = 297 K

R = universal gas constant = 8.314

Using the ideal gas equation

P V = n R T

(202650) V = (4.5) (8.314) (297)

V = 0.055 m³
