Two astronauts of identical mass are connected by a taut cable of negligible mass, as shown in the figure above, and are initial

ly at rest with respect to a nearby space station. Astronaut Y pulls on the cable toward herself with considerable force. Which of the following describes the direction of the velocity of the center of mass of the two astronauts after Astronaut Y pulls on the cable?

Answer:

The right answer is "The center of mass doesn't move".

Explanation:

  • It generates a voltage throughout the cable while the astronaut falls on either the wire. At other ends of the spectrum or cable, the tension will be similar. As such, with both astronauts, there would be the same energy, although throughout the opposite way.
  • Thus, the net force seems to be essentially negative on the machine. And therefore the mass center stays stationary.

According to Galileo, this quantity is not needed to keep a body in motion under ideal conditions.
Sergio [31]
This condition is called Galileo's Law of Inertia which states that all bodies accelerate at the smart rate , no matter what are their masses or size. Inertia is that tendency of matter to resist changes in its velocity.  <span>Isaac Newton's first law of motion captures the concept of inertia. </span>

Kobotan [32]

Answer:

Temperature

Explanation:

The heat flows from high temperature to low temperature.So we can say that temperature is the property that decide the direction of heat flow.Like in the electric system current flow high voltage to low voltage ,so we can say that voltage is the property which determine the direction of current flow.

So the answer is Temperature.

The leg's force forward on the foot= 500N
Anna11 [10]

There's so much going on here, in a short period of time.

<u>Before the kick</u>, as the foot swings toward the ball . . .

-- The net force on the ball is zero.  That's why it just lays there and
does not accelerate in any direction.

-- The net force on the foot is 500N, originating in the leg, causing it to
accelerate toward the ball.


<u>During the kick</u> ... the 0.1 second or so that the foot is in contact with the ball ...

-- The net force on the ball is 500N.  That's what makes it accelerate from
just laying there to taking off on a high arc.

-- The net force on the foot is zero ... 500N from the leg, pointing forward,
and 500N as the reaction force from the ball, pointing backward. 

That's how the leg's speed remains constant ... creating a dent in the ball
until the ball accelerates to match the speed of the foot, and then drawing
out of the dent, as the ball accelerates to exceed the speed of the foot and
draw away from it.
