The formula for energy of motion is KE = .5 x m x v^2

Ke= Kinetic Energy in Joules

m = Mass in Kilograms

v = Velocity in Meters per Second

Two astronauts, each with a mass of 50 kg, are connected by a 7 m massless rope. Initially they are rotating around their center

kiruha [24]

Answer:

The angular velocity is $w_f = 1.531 \ rad/ s$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The mass of each astronauts is $m = 50 \ kg$

The initial distance between the two astronauts $d_i = 7 \ m$

Generally the radius is mathematically represented as $r_i = \frac{d_i}{2} = \frac{7}{2} = 3.5 \ m$

The initial angular velocity is $w_1 = 0.5 \ rad /s$

The distance between the two astronauts after the rope is pulled is $d_f = 4 \ m$

Generally the radius is mathematically represented as $r_f = \frac{d_f}{2} = \frac{4}{2} = 2\ m$

Generally from the law of angular momentum conservation we have that

$I_{k_1} w_{k_1}+ I_{p_1} w_{p_1} = I_{k_2} w_{k_2}+ I_{p_2} w_{p_2}$

Here $I_{k_1 }$ is the initial moment of inertia of the first astronauts which is equal to $I_{p_1}$ the initial moment of inertia of the second astronauts So

$I_{k_1} = I_{p_1 } = m * r_i^2$

Also $w_{k_1 }$ is the initial angular velocity of the first astronauts which is equal to $w_{p_1}$ the initial angular velocity of the second astronauts So

$w_{k_1} =w_{p_1 } = w_1$

Here $I_{k_2 }$ is the final moment of inertia of the first astronauts which is equal to $I_{p_2}$ the final moment of inertia of the second astronauts So

$I_{k_2} = I_{p_2} = m * r_f^2$

Also $w_{k_2 }$ is the final angular velocity of the first astronauts which is equal to $w_{p_2}$ the final angular velocity of the second astronauts So
