You clearly identified the pole you're talking about as the
"north-seeking" pole. Assuming your integrity and sincerity,
we would then naturally expect that pole to seek north, and
point to Earth's north magnetic pole.
I'm confident in this answer also because I have several of
these devices hanging from the ceiling of my office, and I can
attest to the fact that on most clear days, they do in fact point
toward Earth's north magnetic pole.
One is when you are measuring a distance in space! I don't know the other but hope you find another example!
Answer:
The velocity of the astronaut is, v = - 0.36 m/s
Explanation:
Given data,
The mass of the astronaut, M = 84 kg
The mass of the gas expelled by the thruster, m = 35 g
= 0.035 g
The velocity of the gas expelled, v = 875 m/s
According to the conservation of momentum,
MV + mv = 0
V = - mv / M
Substituting the values,
V = - 0.035 x 875 / 84
= - 0.36 m/s
The negative sign in the velocity indicates the astronaut moves opposite to the direction of velocity of gas.
Hence, the velocity of the astronaut is, v = - 0.36 m/s
