Answer:
They are in free-fall motion.
Explanation:
The Earth orbiting astronauts are falling at an acceleration that is the same or greater than the acceleration due to gravity i.e., 9.81 m/s². If you are continuously falling at this rate then you will feel weightless.
This same effect is felt while going down in an elevator. When you down in an elevator you feel that you are lighter and feel that something is pushing you up. Earth-orbiting astronauts feel the same effect but the accelration is greater hence they feel weightless.
Answer:
Enter an equation of a chemical reaction and click 'Balance'. The answer will appear below
Always use the upper case for the first character in the element name and the lower case for the second character.
To enter an electron into a chemical equation use {-} or e
To enter an ion specify charge after the compound in curly brackets: {+3} or {3+} or {3}. Example: Fe{3+} + I{-} =...
Substitute immutable groups in chemical compounds to avoid ambiguity. For instance equation C6H5C2H5 + O2 = C6H5OH + CO2...

Answer:
83,900 J
Explanation:
First, find the acceleration:
F = ma
1150 N = (1600 kg) a
a = 0.719 m/s²
Now find the final velocity.
Given:
Δx = 45.8 m
v₀ = 6.25 m/s
a = 0.719 m/s²
Find: v
v² = v₀² + 2aΔx
v² = (6.25 m/s)² + 2 (0.719 m/s²) (45.8 m)
v = 10.2 m/s
Now find the final KE:
KE = ½ mv²
KE = ½ (1600 kg) (10.2 m/s)²
KE = 83,920 J
Rounded to three significant figures, the final kinetic energy is 83,900 J.
To solve this problem, let us consider that the Earth is the
origin, the initial reference point. Therefore the speed of rocket plus the
missile would be 0.8 C
Now after the rocket had moved away from Earth, it fired a missile
at a speed of 0.7 C. Now the reference made to this is relative to the rocket.
We have established that our initial reference point is the Earth, therefore
the real speed of the missile with reference to Earth is:
Speed of missile relative to Earth = 0.8 C + 0.7 C
Speed of missile relative to Earth = 1.5 C
