A astronaut has a mass of 97.0 kg counting his suit and tools. He accidently loses his safety line while drifting in space 4.00 meters from the space shuttle. To get back, he removes a 5.3 kg tool from his belt and throws it at 16.0 m/s away from the shuttle. How fast will he move toward the shuttle? Take toward the shuttle as positive.

An important dimensionless parameter concerned with very high-speed flow is the mach number, defined as v/c, where v is the speed of the object such as an airplane or projectile, and c is the speed of sound in the fluid surrounding the object. for a projectile traveling at 1170 mph through air at 50 ˚f and standard atmospheric pressure, what is the value of the mach number?

You are driving to the grocery store at 20 m/s. you are 110m from an intersection when the traffic light turns red. assume that your reaction time is 0.50s and that your car brakes with constant acceleration. how far are you from the intersection when you begin to apply the brakes? what acceleration will bring you to rest right at the intersection? how long does it take you to stop after the light changes? the known values: vi=20m/s xi=110m t=.50s vf=0m/s xf=0m a=?
