An astronaut has drifted too far away from the International Space station (ISS) while on an untethered spacewalk. She realizes that she is moving away from the ISS at 3 m/s. She and her space suit have a mass of 90 kg. On her back is a 10 kg jetpack which consists of a 7.25 kg holding tank filled with 2.75 kg of pressurized gas. She is able to use the gas to propel herself directly towards the station. The gas exits the tank at a uniform rate with a constant velocity of 100 m/s, relative to the tank (and her). a) [10 pts] After the tank has been emptied, what is her velocity

A33.1 g copper object is launched from a 1.5 m 30° steel incline positioned on the floor by being pulled up a string attached to a 50.0 g mass suspended vertically over a pulley. the object is projected towards a glass table where it lands when it is at the point along its trajectory with the lowest speed. it comes to a halt when it clears the opposite edge of the table. it then falls and lands on 9 physics texts each 5 cm thick that are stacked on the floor on the opposite side of the table. assume that the table does not have a ledge and the rectangular object experiences 0.05 n of air resistance as it falls towards the books. how far and how long did the object travel and how fast does it hit the books. assume that at the moment the copper object leaves the incline, the massless string and ideal pulley break off

Asmall metal bar, whose initial temperature was 10° c, is dropped into a large container of boiling water. how long will it take the bar to reach 70° c if it is known that its temperature increases 2° during the first second? (the boiling temperature for water is 100° c. round your answer to one decimal place.) sec how long will it take the bar to reach 98° c? (round your answer to one decimal place.)
