Answer:
0.2 m/s
Explanation:
given,
mass of astronaut, M = 85 Kg
mass of hammer, m = 1 Kg
velocity of hammer , v =17 m/s
speed of astronaut, v' = ?
initial speed of the astronaut and the hammer be equal to zero = ?
Using conservation of momentum
(M + m) V = M v' + m v
(M + m) x 0 = 85 x v' + 1 x 17
85 v' = -17
v' = -0.2 m/s
negative sign represent the astronaut is moving in opposite direction of hammer.
Hence, the speed of the astronaut is equal to 0.2 m/s
The correct option is B.
The length of an object, the mass of an object and the rate of time passage for an object can change depending on the situation which the object is subject to. For instance in space, the mass and the velocity of an object usually change. But, the value of the speed of light in the space is the same for all observers regardless of the motion of an object, that is, the speed of light is a constant.<span />
Weight increases but mass stays the same
