Answer:
13.7m
Explanation:
Since there's no external force acting on the astronaut or the satellite, the momentum must be conserved before and after the push. Since both are at rest before, momentum is 0.
After the push
Where is the mass of the astronaut,
is the mass of the satellite,
is the speed of the satellite. We can calculate the speed
of the astronaut:
So the astronaut has a opposite direction with the satellite motion, which is further away from the shuttle. Since it takes 7.5 s for the astronaut to make contact with the shuttle, the distance would be
d = vt = 1.83 * 7.5 = 13.7 m
The energy of a single photon is given by
where
is the Planck constant
f is the frequency of the wave (of the photon)
In our problem, the radio wave has a frequency of
, so if we put this value into the previous formula, we can find the energy of a single photon of this electromagnetic wave:
where
f is the frequency of the wave (of the photon)
In our problem, the radio wave has a frequency of
