1. A 90 kg astronaut floating out in space is carrying a 1.0 kg TV camera and a 10 kg battery pack. He's drifting toward his ship but, in order to get back faster, he hurls the camera out into space (away from the space ship) at 19 m/s and then throws the battery at 14 m/s in the same direction. What's the resulting increase in his speed after each throw?
After throwing the camera?
After throwing the battery?
2. I believe this equation is used: (M1+M2)Vi=M1 V1f + M2 V2f
3. I am having difficulty assigning values to Vi, V1f and V2f. Am I on the right track?
