An astronaut floating at rest in space has run out of fuel in her jetpack. She realizes that throwing tools from her toolkit in the opposite direction will help propel her back toward the space station. If the astronaut has a mass of 85 kg and she throws a hammer of mass 4.5 kg at a speed of 4 m/s, what will be the approximate resultant velocity that carries her back to the space station?
You and another astronaut are in space. You throw a tool to them that has a mass of 15kg. Your mass is 91kg and the other astronaut's mass is 88kg. Initially you and the other astronaut are at rest. You threw the tool at a speed of 8m/s. What is your velocity after you threw the tool?
A toy train engine (3.4 kg) is moving 0.25_m/s to the right when it collides with a train car (3.9.kg) moving 0.15 m/s in the opposite direction, and they stick together.

You are sitting in a sled, at rest on a pond covered with nice, thick, frictionless ice. Your own mass is 64.8 kg, and the sleds mass is 21.5 kg. You start at rest, and then you jump off the sled, after which the empty sled is traveling at a speed of 4.25 m/s. What will be your speed on the ice after jumping off? 0.71 m/s 2.12 m/s 1.77 m/s 1.41 m/s
Train cars are coupled together by being bumped into one another. Suppose two loaded train cars are moving toward one another, the first having a mass of 180,000 kg and a velocity of 0.300 m/s,and the second having a mass of 95,000 kg and a velocity of −0.120 m/s. (The minus indicates direction of motion.) What is their final velocity (in m/s)? m/s
Bob and Tom take a sled weighing 10 N to a frozen pond. The sled is initially at rest on the ice. Bob who weighs 490 N runs at 2 metres per second and jumps on the sled. A few seconds later, Tom who weighs 540N runs at 4 metres per second and jumps on the sled with Bob. Keep all values to 3 decimal places. A)What is the velocity of the sled after Bob jumps on to it? B)What is the velocity of the sled after Tom jumps on it?
Three identical train cars, coupled together, are rolling east at speed v0v0. A fourth car traveling east at 2v0v0 catches up with the three and couples to make a four-car train. A moment later, the train cars hit a fifth car that was at rest on the tracks, and it couples to make a five-car train.What is the speed of the five-car train?
JD is playing with some clay (mass = 18-g). He flings it across the room, where it lodges on the hood of a 259-g toy car that can freely roll back. Once in motion, the clay/car combination moves with a speed of 0.78 m/s. Determine the speed (in m/s) at which the clay was flung.
