The longest bone in the body is the femur, which is also known as the thighbone. It extends from the above portion of the knee cap and finishes at the femoral head, which is in the hip socket.

A 126- kg astronaut (including space suit) acquires a speed of 2.70 m/s by pushing off with her legs from a 1800-kg space capsul

jeka94

The change in the speed of the space capsule will be -0.189 m/s.

The average force exerted by each on the other will be 567 N.

The kinetic energy of each after the push for the astronaut and the capsule are 459.27 J and 32.14 J.

<h3>Given:</h3>

Mass of the astronaut, $m_a$ = 126 kg

Speed he acquires, $v_{a}$ = 2.70 m/s

Mass of the space capsule, $m_{c}$ = 1800kg

The initial momentum of the astronaut-capsule system is zero due to rest.

$P_f = m_av_a + m_cv_c$

$P_I$ = 0

$m_av_a + m_cv_c = 0$

$v_c =\frac{- m_a v_a}{m_c}}\\\\$

$= \frac{126* 2.70}{1800}$

$= - 0.189$ m/s

Therefore,

According, to the impulse-momentum theorem;

FΔt = ΔP

ΔP = m Δv

ΔP = 126×2.70

= 340.2 kgm/sec

t is time interval = 0.600s

F = ΔP/Δt

F = 340.2/0.600

= 567 N

Therefore, the average force exerted by each on the other will be 567 N.

The Kinetic Energy of the astronaut;

K.E = $\frac{1}{2} m v^2$

$= \frac{1}{2}$ × 126 × $(2.70) ^2$

= 459.27 J

The Kinetic Energy of the capsule;

K.E = $\frac{1}{2} m v^2$

= $\frac{1}{2}$ ×1800× $(0.189) ^2$

= 32.14 J

Therefore, the kinetic energy of each after the push for the astronaut and the capsule are 459.27 J and 32.14 J.

The force of attraction between the opposite charges of the ions in an ionic compound

Contact [7]

The force of attraction between the opposite charges of the ions in an ionic compound is an ionic bond.

Explanation:

The transfer process of valence electron between atoms referred as ionic bond. This is a kind of chemical bonds which can create two oppositely charged ions. In the presence of ionic bonds, the metal loses electrons and becomes a positive charge cation, while non-metal accepts these electrons and becomes a negative charge anion.

Here, more than 1 electron can be emitted or received to meet the octet principle and the net charge of the compound should be zero. For example: Table salt. In this compound, sodium loses the electron to become $N a^{+}$ , while the chlorine loses the electron to become $c l^{-}$ .

A 1 kg object sits on the earth’s surface. What is the force of gravity between the object and the earth? (mass of the earth = 5

snow_lady [41]

Answer:

9.81N

Explanation:

the force of attraction is given by

F=GmM/R²

where m is mass of the body

M is mass of the earth

R is radius of the earth

G is the universal gravitational constant(6.67x10-¹¹)

hence we substitute the values in the formula.
