You are an astronaut floating alongside your space ship. If you throw a baseball with a speed of 10 m/s, you will move at:

a) a slower speed and in the same direction as the baseball.
b) a higher speed and in the same direction as the baseball.
c) a higher speed and in the opposite direction as the baseball.
d) a slower speed and in the opposite direction as the baseball.

Answer: it will take   4.36 seconds to reach her average velocity 10.69 miles/hour.explanation:   we have equation of motion ,where s is the displacement, a is the acceleration, u is the initial velocity and t is the time taken.average velocity = displacement/ time taken.average velocity = 10.69 miles/hr = 10.69*1.6*1000/(60*60) = 4.75 m/s4.75 = s/ts = 4. 1we also have acceleration = 2.18 m/s², initial velocity = 0 m/sso it will take   4.36 seconds to reach her average velocity 10.69 miles/hour.
