Answer:
a) m = 69.0 kg
b) release some gas in the opposite direction to the astronaut's movement
Explanation:
a) Let's use Newton's second law
F = m a
m = F / a
m = 60.0 / 0.870
m = 69.0 kg
b) when we exert a force on the astronaut it acquires a momentum po, as the astronaut system plus spacecraft is isolated, the momentum is conserved
p₀ = p_f
m v = M v '
v ’=
so we see that the ship is moving backwards, but since the mass of the ship is much greater than the mass of the astronaut, the speed of the ship is very small.
One method to avoid this effect is to release some gas in the opposite direction to the astronaut's movement so that the initial momentum of the astronaut plus the gas is zero and therefore no movement is created in the spacecraft.
Explanation:
(a) Since, it is given that the blocks are identical so distribution of charge will be uniform on both the blocks.
Hence, final charge on block A will be calculated as follows.
Charge on block A =
= 4.35 nC
Therefore, final charge on the block A is 4.35 nC.
(b) As it is given that the positive charge is coming on block A . This means that movement of electrons will be from A to B.
Thus, we can conclude that while the blocks were in contact with each other then electrons will flow from A to B.
