Grandma has a new car that uses rocket brakes to slow it down. The car has a mass of
850 kg. She starts out by moving forward with a speed of 12.8 m/s. She then applies
the rocket brakes, but as the car comes to a stop she forgets to take her foot off the
brake pedal and the rocket continues to apply its force. She ends up moving
backwards with a speed of 9.32 m/s. The total time the brakes were firing was 6.74
seconds. (a) Find the change in momentum of the car. (b) Using the formula for
impulse, calculate how much force the rocket brake was applying to the car on
average, including the direction?
Kaya, a crew member on an interplanetary space ship, is on a spacewalk. She realizes that her ship is moving away from her at 0.5 m/s. She and her spacesuit have a total mass of 95 kg. Her space suit includes a 15 kg backpack, which is included in the 95 kg total mass.a). What is the minimum velocity she will have to throw the backpack so that she can gain enough velocity to eventually catch up with the ship?
b). Kaya applies an average force of 400 N to the backpack for 0.05 seconds. Will Kaya make it back to the ship? If so, determine how much time it will take for her to reach the ship. If not, determine how much more force she would need to apply to make it back.
A 129-kg astronaut (including space suit) acquires a speed of 2.90 m/s by pushing off with her legs from a 1900-kg space capsule. Use the reference frame in which the capsule is at rest before the push.
A.)What is the velocity of the space capsule after the push in the reference frame? Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units. Enter positive value if the direction of the velocity is in the direction of the velocity of the astronaut and negative value if the direction of the velocity is in the direction opposite to the velocity of the astronaut.
