Aspace walking astronaut has become detached from her spaceship she’s floating in space for wanting nothing but a wrench she is thinking about how to get back to the spaceship which she can see 50 m from her current location what can she do to get back to the spaceship use language from newtons laws of motion in your answer astronaut has become detached from her spaceship she’s floating in space for wanting nothing but a wrench she is thinking about how to get back to the spaceship which she can see 50 m from her current location what can she do to get back to the spaceship use language from newtons laws of motion in your answer

As per Newton's II law every action has equal and opposite reaction

So when Astronaut is detached from the spaceship and she is at distance 50 m from the spaceship then there is no force on the Astronaut and she is in isolated state

In this way if Astronaut want to reach back on her spaceship then she required a force towards the spaceship

Here the force on her can not be applied by any other mean as she is isolated situation

So she must have to throw an object in opposite direction with some force due to which she will also get a force due to Newton's III law

This will lead her towards the spaceship

So with the help of Newton's III law we will say that she will be able to reach at her spaceship

it is called kinetic energy
