An unfortunate astronaut loses his grip during a spacewalk and finds himself floating away from the space station, carrying only a rope and a bag of tools. first he tries to throw a rope to his fellow astronaut, but the rope is too short. in a last ditch effort, the astronaut throws his bag of tools in the direction of his motion, away from the space station. the astronaut has a mass of 124 kg and the bag of tools has a mass of 16.0 kg. if the astronaut is moving away from the space station at =1.80 m/s initially, what is the minimum final speed of the bag of tools with respect to the space station that will keep the astronaut from drifting away forever?
