After the initial push, the rock will keep moving forever at constant velocity (constant speed in a straight line)
Explanation:
We can answer this question by using Newton's first law of motion:
"An object at rest (or in motion at constant velocity) will stay at rest (or will keep moving at constant velocity) unless acted upon unbalanced forces" (Law of inertia)
In this problem, we have a rock in a place very far from any force that can act on it. This means that there are no unbalanced force acting on it, so the rock will keep its state of motion forever.
In this situation, the rock is initially thrown by the astronaut. After the initial push, which accelerates the rock up to a certain velocity, there will be no more forces acting on the rock. This means that the rock will continue moving at a constant velocity forever, so at a constant speed in a straight line.

KE=1/2mv^2 - equation for kinetic energy
KE=(1/2)(0.12 kg)((7.8 m/s)^2 - plug it into the formula
KE=(0.06 kg)(60.84 m/s) - multiply 1/2 to the mass and square the speed
KE= 3.7 J - answer
Hope this helps
Maybe show a picture ? I don’t get the question .

Explanation:
Given parameters:
Mass of Gold = 12400g
Initial temperature = 23°C
Final temperature = 1064°C
Unknown:
Energy required to melt = ?
Solution:
The amount of heat required to cause this temperature change to heat the gold bar is given as;
H = m c Ф
m is the mass of gold bar
c is the specific heat capacity of gold
Ф is the heat change
Specific heat capacity of gold = 0.129J/g°C
H = m c (Ф₂ - Ф₁)
H = 12400 x 0.129 x (1064 - 23) = 1665183.6J
