Explanation:
Mass of the astronaut, m₁ = 170 kg
Speed of astronaut, v₁ = 2.25 m/s
mass of space capsule, m₂ = 2600 kg
Let v₂ is the speed of the space capsule. It can be calculated using the conservation of momentum as :
initial momentum = final momentum
Since, initial momentum is zero. So,



So, the change in speed of the space capsule is 0.17 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.
Answer:
D.
Explanation:
Given that your boat departs from the bank of a river that has a swift current parallel to its banks. If you want to cross this river in the shortest amount of time, you should direct your boat: so that it drifts with the current.
If the boat moves perpendicular to the current, the current flow will be the resistance to the movement of the boat. So, it's better for the boat to drifts perpendicularly with the current.
The best answer is therefore option D.
Frictional Force is the answer..

Answer:
500J
Explanation:
The arrow will have an energy of 500J after it has been released from its state of rest.
This is compliance with the law of conservation of energy which states that "in every system, energy is neither created nor destroyed but transformed from one form to another".
- The energy at rest which is the potential energy is 500J
- This energy will be converted to kinetic energy in total after the arrow has been released.
- This way, no energy is lost and we can account for the energy transformations occurring.
A warmer climate is produced because of the gulf stream which begins at the tip of Florida and flows up all the way to NW Europe.
