Answer:
It continue to move forward at a constant velocity which will be slower than before the front thruster was fired.
Explanation:
Before the front thruster was fired, the spacecraft was already moving at a particular velocity.
After the malfunction, the front thruster is fired and then the force exerted by that front thruster slows the spacecraft down, as we are told.
By using the rear thruster to exert a force equal to that from the front thrusters, a force equal in magnitude to that of the front thrusters is added, cancelling out the effect of the front thrusters. Because the spacecraft is already moving at a slower speed at this point compared to the beginning, it continues to move at that speed.
Answer:
a) amount of kinetic energy converted to internal energy = 2.5 x 10 raised to power 7 Joule
b) Kinetic energy gained by the earth = 2.1 x 10-16J
c) All the kinetic energy is converted to internal energy and the energy is further converted to thermal energy hence the reason for the hotness at around where the meteorite strikes.
Explanation:
The detailed steps and appropriate application of the law of conservation of momentum is as shown in the attached file.

•thunder/lightning storms
Answer:
We can conclude that there is a decrease in kinetic energy of the particles due to their elastic collision, since kinetic energy is directly proportional to squared velocity of the particles.
Explanation:
Given:
initial velocity of particle A, Ua = 5m/s
initial velocity of particle B, Ub = 10 m/s
final velocity of particle A, Va = 4m/s
final velocity of particle B, Vb = 7m/s
For particle A:
The final velocity is 1 less than the initial velocity.
For particle B:
The final velocity is 3 less than the initial velocity.
We can conclude that there is a loss in kinetic energy due to elastic collision of the two particles, since kinetic energy is directly proportional to squared velocity of the particles. A decrease in velocity means decrease in kinetic energy.
Answer:
It will take 4 sec rock to comes its original point
Explanation:
It is given that the rock comes to its original point
So displacement S = 0 m
Initial velocity u = 19.6 m/sec
Acceleration due to gravity 
According to second equation of motion 
t = 4 sec
