This can be solved using momentum balance, since momentum is conserved, the momentum at point 1 is equal to the momentum of point 2. momentum = mass x velocity
m1v1 = m2v2
(0.03kg x 900 m/s ) = 320(v2)
v2 = 27 / 320
v2 = 0.084 m/s is the speed of the astronaut
Answer: The box was moving with a velocity of 0.256m/s when it hit the spring

Answer:
The net friction force is 8.01 N
Explanation:
Net friction force = mass of hockey puck × acceleration
From the equations of motion
v^2 = u^2 + 2as
v = 40 m/s
u = 0 m/s (puck was initially at rest)
s = 30 m
40^2 = 0^2 + 2×a×30
60a = 1600
a = 1600/60 = 26.7 m/s^2
The acceleration of the puck is 26.7 m/s^2
Net friction force = 0.3 × 26.7 = 8.01 N
Answer:
Safety
Explanation:
Expressways are banked to resist centifugal action
The complete sentence is:
A calorimeter directly measures changes in temperature in order to calculate specific heat.
In fact, the amount of energy acquired/released by a substance is directly proportional to its change in temperature due to the equation
where Q is the amount of energy, m is the mass of the substance, Cs is the specific heat of the substance and 
is the change in temperature. Therefore, by knowing Q, m and by measuring the change in temperature, it is possible to calculate Cs, the specific heat capacity of the substance.
