Answer:
He can return to the spacecraft by sacrificing some of the tools employing the principle of conservation of momentum.
Explanation:
By carefully evaluating his direction back to the ship, the astronaut can throw some of his tools in the opposite direction to that. On throwing those tools of a certain mass, they travel at a certain velocity giving him velocity in the form of recoil in the opposite direction of the velocity of the tools. This is same as a gun and bullet recoil momentum conservation. It is also the principle on which the operational principles of their maneuvering unit is designed.
Answer:The answer is A,B and C
Explanation: it can be use to learn universe behavior,it is also use for the measurements of velocity of galaxy,and is can also be use to indicate,galaxy motion.
Doppler effect,measures the speed which star and galaxy are moving away from us or towards us. It shows the color of wavelength to be either red shift or blue shift.
Answer:
1. the pencil would have the momentum and would keep going until it hits the windshield. 2. when the car suddenly accelerates, the pencil would be inert and it would move toward the back of the car until a constant speed from the car is reached.

Answer:
Explanation:
Given that,
At one instant,
Center of mass is at 2m
Xcm = 2m
And velocity =5•i m/s
One of the particle is at the origin
M1=? X1 =0
The other has a mass M2=0.1kg
And it is at rest at position X2= 8m
a. Center of mass is given as
Xcm = (M1•X1 + M2•X2) / (M1+M2)
2 = (M1×0 + 0.1×8) /(M1 + 0.1)
2 = (0+ 0.8) /(M1 + 0.1)
Cross multiply
2(M1+0.1) = 0.8
2M1 + 0.2 =0.8
2M1 = 0.8-0.2
2M1 = 0.6
M1 = 0.6/2
M1 = 0.3kg
b. Total momentum, this is an inelastic collision and it momentum after collision is given as
P= (M1+M2)V
P = (0.3+0.1)×5•i
P = 0.4 × 5•i
P = 2 •i kgm/s
c. Velocity of particle at origin
Using conversation of momentum
Momentum before collision is equal to momentum after collision
P(before) = M1 • V1 + M2 • V2
We are told that M2 is initially at rest, then, V2=0
So, P(before) = 0.3V1
We already got P(after) = 2 •i kgm/s in part b of the question
Then,
P(before) = P(after)
0.3V1 = 2 •i
V1 = 2/0.3 •i
V1 = 6 ⅔ •i m/s
V1 = 6.667 •i m/s
