We have a spring that has equilibrium at distance R. the spring is attached at horizontal distance R from circle (R is distance from edge of circle, distance from circles origo is 2R) that has radius R. Mass attached to spring can move freely in that circle path. In circle we have 3 points...
I rethought it and am I really right. I mean in that solution I have assumed that the velocity astronaut gives to one apple is same as the velocity he gives to whole bag. But is the velocity really constant, shouldn't it be impulse that is constant since astronaut is human he has maxium force he...
Homework Statement
Astronaut is at rest in space. He has back of apples with him. How should he throw the rocks away to gain maxium velocity. (one by one, whole back, slice the apples into smaller fracments, group the apples, etc)
