And worst – she is down to 60 seconds of oxygen left – there's plenty in her spaceship as well as her delicious lunch of baba ganoush. She remembers Prof. P's class and throws her 23.6 kg jetpack in the opposite direction of her spaceship at 1.4 m/s. Her mass is 55 kg. Will she make it back to her spaceship before she runs out of air? Convince me with numbers - tell me how long in seconds it takes for her to get back. Will we be seeing her in Exam 4? Or is it the end for her?arrow_forward

Two automobiles traveling at right angles to each other collide and stick together. Skid marks show the wreckage was traveling 21° from the original direction of car A. Find the original speed of car B in terms of car A's original speed (VA) if their masses are related by ßmд where ß =1.9. Fill in the missing factor below.
