Answer:
the apparent weight of the astronaut in the rocket is 3723 N.
Given:
acceleration = 34 
mass of astronaut = 85 kg
To find:
Apparent weight of the astronaut = ?
Solution:
Total weight of the astronaut in a rocket is given by,
W = w + F
W = apparent weight of the astronaut
w = weight of astronaut on earth surface = mg
F = force acting on the astronaut = ma
W = mg+ma
W = m (g+a)
W = 85 (9.8 + 34)
W = 3723 N
Thus, the apparent weight of the astronaut in the rocket is 3723 N.
Using v=u+at, Where v is final velocity(m/s), u is initial velocity(m/s), a is acceleration(m/s^2) and t is time(s).
v = 0 + 3.2*6
v=19.2 m/s.
When we jump from the truck and accelerate towards the earth surface, the earth also accelerates towards us but it's acceleration is very negligible.
To find the answer, we need to know about the acceleration of earth due to the gravitational attraction.
<h3>What's the gravitational force between the earth and a person?</h3>
- Gravitational attraction force is GMm/r² between the earth and a person.
- M= mass of the earth
m= mass of the person
r= separation between them.
<h3>What's the acceleration of the earth towards the person when he jumps from a truck?</h3>
- According to Newton's second law, Force = M×acceleration
- Acceleration= Force / M
- Here, Force = GMm/r²,
so acceleration of earth= Gm/r²
- As this acceleration is very small, so we can't notice it.
Thus, we can conclude that the earth also accelerates towards us.
