You are floating in space, outside of Earth's gravitational reach, and need to move towards yourspace shuttle. You throw a wrench to take advantage of Newton's 3rd law. You have a mass of 60 kgand the wrench has a mass of 1 kg. Which it true:A)You will accelerate 60 times more than the wrenchB)You will accelerate twice as much as the wrenchC)You and the wrench will accelerate at the same rateD) The wrench will accelerate twice as much as youE)The wrench will accelerate 60 times as much as you

Respuesta :

Newton's third law says If object A exerts a force on object B, then object B must exert a force of equal magnitude and opposite direction back on object A.

[tex]m_1a_1=m_2a_2[/tex]

we have

[tex]1(a_1)=60(a_2)[/tex]

in order to satisfy the law, E)The wrench will accelerate 60 times as much as you
