- A 56.0-kg astronaut is in space, far from any objects that would exert a significant gravitational force on him. He would like to move toward his spaceship, but his jet pack is not functioning. He throws a 0.720-kg socket wrench with a velocity of 5.00 m/s in a direction away from the ship. After 0.500 s, he throws a 0.800-kg spanner in the same direction with a speed of 8.00 m/s. After another 9.90 s, he throws a mallet with a speed of 6.00 m/s in the same direction. The mallet has a mass of 1.20 kg. How fast is the astronaut moving after he throws the mallet?(assume all speeds are relative to the spaceship).arrow_forwardA 650.0-kg car makes a 90° turn. Its speed before the turn is 23.0 m/s and after the turn it is 27.6 m/s.

- This time, your mass is 75.2 kg and the sled s mass is 10.5 kg. You re on the sled, initially moving to the west at 6.53 cm/s. From the southern shore, your friend throws a baseball of mass 0.132 kg, which you catch as it s traveling northward with a horizontal velocity component of 28.4 m/s. What will be the sled s (and your) speed after catching the ball? 1 6.28 cm/s 7.85 cm/s 3 4.98 cm/s 4 35.3 cm/sarrow_forwardThis time, your mass is 86.5 kg and the sled s mass is 15.6 kg.
