An 89.0 kgkg spacewalking astronaut pushes off a 640 kgkg satellite, exerting a 85.0 NN force for the 0.600 ss it takes him to straighten his arms. How far apart are the astronaut and the satellite after 1.50 minmin? Express your answer with the appropriate units.
At a time when mining asteroids has become feasible, astronauts have connected a line between their 3070-kg space tug and a 5580-kg asteroid. They pull on the asteroid with a force of 307 N. Initially the tug and the asteroid are at rest, 436 m apart. How much time does it take for the ship and the asteroid to meet?

1.A 54.0-kg astronaut is in space, far from any objects that would exert a significant gravitational force on him. He would like to move toward his spaceship, but his jet pack is not functioning. He throws a 0.720-kg socket wrench with a velocity of 5.00 m/s in a direction away from the ship. After 0.500 s, he throws a 0.800-kg spanner in the same direction with a speed of 8.00 m/s. After another 9.90 s, he throws a mallet with a speed of 6.00 m/s in the same direction. The mallet has a mass of 1.20 kg. How fast is the astronaut moving after he throws the mallet?(assume all speeds are relative to the spaceship). in m/s 2. In a circus trapeze act, two acrobats fly through the air and grab on to each other, then together grab a swinging bar. One acrobat, with a mass of 46.0 kg, is moving at 3.00 m/s at an angle of 10.0° above the + x axis, and the other, with a mass of 82.0 kg, is approaching her with a speed of 2.00 m/s at an angle of 20.0° above the −x axis.

you were told that the girl's mass was three-fourths that of the boy's mass. The boy has a velocity of v = 0.77 m/s to the left. What would be the girl's velocity in this case? (Consider the ice to be frictionless. Enter the magnitude only.)
Two blocks are connected by a massless string and are held in position by another massless string along a frictionless incline (as shown in the figure). Let M1 = 19.0 kg, M2 = 51.0 kg, and theta = 30o. Calculate the tension in the string connecting the two blocks. What is the tension in the string which connects mass M2 to the wall?
An astronaut in her space suit has a total mass of m1 = 90.0 kg, including suit and oxygen tank. Her tether line loses its attachment to her spacecraft while she's on a spacewalk. Initially at rest with respect to her spacecraft, she throws her oxygen tank of mass m2 = 12.0 kg away from her spacecraft with a speed v = 9.00 m/s to propel herself back toward it. (a) Determine the maximum distance she can be from the craft and still return within 1.80 min (the amount of time the air in her helmet remains breathable). m(b) Explain in terms of Newton's laws of motion why this strategy works.
A tennis player receives a shot with the ball (m = 0.060 kg) travelling horizontally at 50.0 m/s and returns the shot with the ball travelling horizontally at 40.o m/s. If the racquet was in contact with the ball for 0.015 seconds, find the force of the racquet on the ball.
