Choose the correct explanation why does the statement make sense (or is clearly true) or does not make sense (or is clearly false).
a. This statement is true. She and the Space Station have different orbits at the beginning and will move apart.
b. This statement is true. She and the Space Station cannot share the same orbit and will move apart quickly.
c. This statement is false. She and the Space Station have different orbits at the beginning but will stay together due to mutual gravity.

Answer:

d. This statement is false. She and the Space Station share the same orbit and will stay together unless they are pushed apart.

Explanation:

In astronomy, orbit is simply a path of an object around another object in a space. That is, orbit is a path of a body that revolves around a gravitating center of mass. Examples of an orbit is are satellite around a planet, orbit around a center of galaxy, planet around the sun, and among others.

On the other hand, space station refers to a spacecraft that can support a group of human for long time in the orbit. Another names for space stations are orbital space station and orbital station.

Therefore, an astronaut goes on a space walk outside the Space Station shares the same orbit with the space station and they will stay together unless they are pushed apart.

found the potential spring energy. not sure how to find the height of the block by knowing only the mass. found the weight of it
evablogger [386]

(h + .16) m g = 1/2 k x^2   total PE of block relative to where it stops

(h + .16) .82 * 9.8 = .5 * 120 * .16^2    PE released = PE of  spring

8.04 h + 1.29 = 1.536

h = (1.536 - 1.29) / 8.04 = .031 m = 3.1 cm
