Kinetic energy = (1/2) (mass) (speed)²
BUT . . . in order to use this equation just the way it's written,
the speed has to be in meters per second. So we'll have to
make that conversion.
KE = (1/2) · (1,451 kg) · (48 km/hr)² · (1000 m/km)² · (1 hr/3,600 sec)²
= (725.5) · (48 · 1000 · 1 / 3,600)² (kg) · (km·m·hr / hr·km·sec)²
= (725.5) · ( 40/3 )² · ( kg·m² / sec²)
= 128,978 joules (rounded)
Answer:
160 W
Explanation:
Power is the ratio of work to time:
(1600 J)/(10 s) = 160 J/s = 160 W
It depends on your weight, your hieght, and how fast you are falling
a.) K 2=K 1 +GmM( r 21− r 11)=2.2×10 7J
b.) K 2 +GmM( r 11− r 21)=6.9×10 7 J
Applying Law of Energy conservation :
K 1+U 1
=K 2+U 2
⇒K 1− r 1GmM
=K 2− r 2 GmM
where M=5.0×10 23kg,r1
=> R=3.0×10 6m and m=10kg
(a) If K 1
=5.0×10 7J and r 2
=4.0×10 6 m, then the above equation leads to
K 2=K 1 +GmM (r 21− r 11)=2.2×10 7J
(b) In this case, we require K 2
=0 and r2
=8.0×10 6m, and solve for K 1:K 1
=K 2 +GmM (r 11− r 21)=6.9×10 7 J

The best way in handling in this situation is that in order for the astronaut to be able to get back to the shuttle is that he or she should take an object from his or her tool belt and to be thrown out away from the shuttle. This will allow her to weight lightly and safely return to the shuttle and would be easier for his or her to do so.
