The heat moves from the hot chocolate to the handle of the spoon by a process called thermal conduction.

It is the transfer of heat energy from one object to another when they are in contact with eachother.

A NASA explorer spacecraft with a mass of 1,000 kg takes off in a positive direction from a stationary asteroid. If the velocity

Georgia [21]

Answer: 10000 kg

Explanation:

The momentum $p$ is given by the following equation:

$p=m.V$ (1)

Where:

$m$ is the mass of the object

$V$ is the velocity of the object

Now, in this case and according the conservation of momentum:

$m_{1}v_{1}+m_{2}v_{2}=m_{1}u_{1}+m_{2}u_{2}$ (2)

Where:

$m_{1}=1000kg$ is the mass of the spacecraft

$m_{2}$ is the mass of the asteroid

$v_{1}=0$ is the initial velocity of the spacecraft

$v_{2}=0$ is the initial velocity of the asteroid (because we are told the asteroid is stationary, as the spacracft is on the sateroid it remains stationary as well)

$u_{1}=250m/s$ is the final velocity of the spacecraft

$u_{2}=-25m/s$ is the final velocity of the asteroid

Rewritting (2):

$0=m_{1}u_{1}+m_{2}u_{2}$ (3)

$0=(1000kg)(250m/s)+m_{2}(-25m/s)$ (4)

Finding $m_{2}$ :

$m_{2}=10000kg$ This is the mass of the asteroid
