Answer:
Things float when they are positively buoyant, or less dense than the fluid in which they are sitting. This does not mean that an object has to be lighter than the fluid, as in the case of a boat; objects just need to have a greater ratio of empty space to mass than the fluid.

Answer: (a) t = 5.44 sec
(b) vf = 53.31 m/s
(c) s = 5.0m
Explanation: from the question, given data
the Height of the tower, h = 145m
from question
(a)
the initial velocity, v₁ = 0 m/s
s = v₁t + 1/2 gt²
-145 m = 0(t) + 1/2 (-9.8t²)
t² = 145/4.9
t² = 29.59
t = 5.44 sec
(b)
the speed of the sphere at the bottom of the tower is
vf² = vi² +2as
vf² = 0 + 2(-9.8 × -145)
vf² = 2842
vf = 53.31 m/s
(c)
when caught, the sphere experiences a deceleration of;
a = -29.0g
the time it would take to decelerate becomes;
vf = vi + at
0 = (53.31) + (-29 ×9.8)t
where t = 53.31 / 284.2
t = 0.1876 sec
∴ the distance travelled during the deceleration becomes;
vf² = vi² + 2as
s = (vf² - vi²) / 2a
s = (0 - 53.31²) / 2×-29×9.8
s = -2841.9561 / -568.4
s = 4.99 ≈ 5.0m

From the given information:
Distance 
Speed of the comet 
At distance 
where;
mass of the sun = 

To find the speed
:
Using the formula:

The recoil velocity of the astronaut is -0.070 m/s
Explanation:
We can solve this problem by using the principle of conservation of momentum: in fact, in absence of external forces, the total momentum of the astronaut-wrench system must be conserved.
At the beginning, their total momentum is zero:
(1)
Later, after the astronaut throws the wrench, the total momentum is
(2)
where
m = 0.725 kg is the mass of the wrench
v = 13.8 m/s is the velocity of the wrench
M = 143 kg is the mass of the astronaut
V is the recoil velocity of the astronaut
Since momentum is conserved, (1) = (2), and so we can find V:
