Astronauts in orbit are apparently weightless. This means that a clever method of measuring the mass of astronauts is needed to monitor their mass gains or losses, and adjust their diet. One way to do this is to exert a known force on an astronaut and measure the acceleration produced. Suppose a net external force of 50.0 N is exerted, and an astronaut’s acceleration is measured to be 0.893m/s2 . (a) Calculate her mass. (b) By exerting a force on the astronaut, the vehicle in which she orbits experiences an equal and opposite force. Use this knowledge to find an equation for the acceleration of the system (astronaut and spaceship) that would be measured by a nearby observer. (c) Discuss how this would affect the measurement of the astronaut’s acceleration. Propose a method by which recoil of the vehicle is avoided.
In Figure 1, two forces F1 and F2 act on a 5 kg object that is initially at rest. If the magnitude of each force is 10 N, calculate the acceleration produced.
A heavy ball with a mass of 4.5kg is observed to accelerate at a rate of 7.0m/s2. What is the size of the net force acting on this ball?

A 77.0 kg person is being pulled away from a burning building as shown in the figure below. Calculate the tension (in N) in the first rope, T1, if the person is momentarily motionless? Calculate the tension (in N) in the second rope, T2, if the person is momentarily motionless?
A force of 61 N causes a rock to accelerate at a rate of 4 m/s2. What is the mass? I'm sorry our physics teacher does not teach us anything!
Three blocks A, B, and C stand next to each other as shown in the figure. A force F is applied to push block C directly and sends the blocks accelerating to the right with acceleration of 10 m/s2. Let's assume there is no friction between the blocks and the ground. The mass of A, B, and C are 12.300, 89.200, and 154.100 kg, respectively. What is the force applied on block C by block B (in unit of N)?
A baseball pitcher throws a 100 mph fastball to batter Brandon Bopp. Bopp hits a 450 foot home run out of the park. When the ball contacts the bat, which force was greater: the force of the ball on the bat or the force of the bat on the ball?
A 40 N force is applied to a 10 kg block, but the object only accelerates at 2 m/s?. Explain why this happens using a free-body diagram.
