If you launch a probe from a space station in deep space very far away from planets or stars once you blast off how much force would be required to keep the probe going at constant velocity?
Blausteinj
When the probe is already on its way and we can neglect the station's gravitational attraction, it won't need any more propulsion and will continue to move as it started.
This is due to Newton's first law: any object will stay at rest or continue its movement at constant velocity when no unbalanced forces are acting on it.
Deep space, as you describe, virtually satisfies this conditions, as any gravitational influencing bodies are so far away, their gravitational pull is negligible. Also, in a very deep space, away from stars, dust and gases clouds, there wouldn't even be much frictional force.

If a train leaves a station at 0.0 marker traveling with a constant velocity of 36.0msWhat is the velocity a of the train in kmh?
To convert m/s into km/hr, you multiply by 18/5. So 36 m/s is 129.6 km/hr
After running out of gas three people push their 700 kg car up a hill at an angle of 10o from the horizontal What force do they have to apply to maintain a constant velocity up the hill?
haha alot. they should save their energy and walk to the nearest gas station

What are the sister planets in Star Wars?
In the Star Wars mythos, there are two planets in the Corellian System named Talus and Tralus. They both orbit around the same barycenter, therefore they are "sister planets." There is a space station at the barycenter called Centerpoint Station, which played a major role in the Corellian Trilogy of books.
What type of work is done by an astronaut?
To get information from planets or fix something on or in the Space Station
What instrument measures velocity?
In a car, a speedometer. At a weather station, an anemometer measures wind speed.
How does the space station travels?
The International Space Station travels at orbital velocity which is 5 miles per second, or approximately 17,500 miles per hour.
Who governs the antarctic station Casey?
Casey Station is under the administration of the Commonwealth Government of Australia. The Station Leader acts as the representative to administer the rules and regulations as required on station.
Orbital velocity of the international space station?
The ISS is orbiting at around 27,743.8 km/h ((17,239.2 mph)
What is one use of a space station?
One use of a space station is that space station's builds rockets and launch then to go to the moon. Another use is that they build mars rover's which can anylaze planets and maybe universes that we can't visit because we can't handle the temperture of certain planets or too far away that we won't make because DEATH.
What is the difference between a space probe and a space station?
A space probe goes out and observes planets while moving, and a space station stays in orbit or sooner to come on the moon
