A 68.5-kg astronaut is doing a repair in space on the orbiting space station. She throws a 2.25-kg tool away from her at 3.20(m)/(s) relative to the space station. With what speed and in what direction will she begin to move?
A raccoon is sitting on one end of the log and notice that there is an delicious apple just above the other end of the log on the still water as shown on figure. The raccoon starts to walk along the log of 10 meters length at a constant velocity of 0.1 m/s with respect to the log. Neglect its size. The mass of the raccoon is m = 20 kg and the mass of the log is M = 90 kg. Depending on your choice of method, you may answer (b) before (a). You should solve both methods (Center of Mass and Conservation of Momentum). a) As the raccoon is walking, what is the velocity of the log with respect to the shore? b) When the raccoon reaches the opposite end of the log, how far is he horizontally from the apple he desires?

An unfortunate astronaut loses his grip during a spacewalk and finds himself floating away from the space station, carrying only a rope and a bag of tools. First he tries to throw a rope to his fellow astronaut, but the rope is too short. In a last ditch effort, the astronaut throws his bag of tools in the direction of his motion, away from the space station. The astronaut has a mass of ?a=113 kgma=113 kg and the bag of tools has a mass of ?b=13.0 kg.mb=13.0 kg. If the astronaut is moving away from the space station at ?i=1.80 m/svi=1.80 m/s initially, what is the minimum final speed ?b,fvb,f of the bag of tools with respect to the space station that will keep the astronaut from drifting away forever?
