Since, no external force is acting , so the system is in equilibrium .

Initial total energy = Final total energy

mg(4.5) = mg(1.5) + \dfrac{mv^2}{2}\\\\\dfrac{v^2}{2}=3\times g \\\\v^2=3\times 9.8\times 2\\\\v = \sqrt{58.8}\ m/s\\\\v = 7.67 \ m/s ( Here , g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s² )

Therefore, option 1) is correct.

Hence, this is the required solution.

Anna35 [415]
As the first astronaut throws the ball, lets assume it goes with v velocity and the mass of the ball be m
the momentum comes out be mv, thus to conserve that momentum the astronaut will move opposite to the direction of the ball's motion with the velocity mv/M (where M is the mass of the astronaut).

A sled with no initial velocity accelerates at a rate of 3.2 m/s2 down a hill. How long does it take the sled to go 15 m to the
grin007 [14]
S = ut + 1/2 at^2
a = 3.2 m/s^2
s = 15m
Find t
15 = 1/2(3.2)t^2
15 = 3.2t^2/2
30 = 3.2t^2
30/ 3.2 = 9.38
Square root of 9.38 = 3.06
It takes 3.06 seconds
