Explanation:
As given, the student has three balloons and rubs two of them on a piece of wool. The rubbing of balloon on wool is the independent variable as it was done on two and not on the third as control.
Answer:
18.2145 meters
Explanation:
Using the conservation of momentum, we have that:

m1 = m1' is the mass of the astronaut, m2=m2' is the mass of the satellite, v1 and v2 are the inicial speed of the astronaut and the satellite (v1 = v2 = 0), and v1' and v2' are the final speed of the astronaut and the satellite. Then we have that:


The negative sign of this speed just indicates the direction the astronaut goes, which is the opposite direction of the satellite.
If the astronaut takes 7.5 seconds to come into contact with the shuttle, their initial distance is:

Air pressure decreases as altitude increases. this is because air pressure is caused by the gravity of earth, the gravity pulls on the air, compacting it and making a pressure.
But as we go higher, gravity decreases, causing less pull on the air resulting in less air pressure.<span />
