Answer:

The astronaut's mass is 16 kg.

Explanation:

Mass can be defined as a measure of the amount of matter an object or a body comprises of. The standard unit of measurement of the mass of an object or a body is kilograms.

Irrespective of the location of an object or a body at a given moment in time, the mass (amount of matter that they're made up of) is constant. This ultimately implies that, whether you're in the moon, space, earth or any other place, your mass remains the same (constant).

Therefore, if an astronaut has a mass of 16 Kg on Earth, his mass on the moon and on the space station would remain the same, as his original mass of 16 Kg because mass is indestructible.

(a) that the acceleration (A) will have no components that are identically zero. (B) may have some components that are identical

umka21 [38]

Answer:

Explanation:

acceleration in the z component = velocity in z component / time. The question states velocity in z component is zero. Therefore, acceleration in z component = 0/time = 0.

Now the question does not specify whether the other velocity vectors (x or y) is zero or not. So its D.
