In outer space the astronauts can turn the rocket engine off and still continue to travel at their current speedhow is that pssible?

On Earth, this would be impossible because of friction. Moving objects hit air particles and start to slow down. In space however, there is no air. It is a complete vacuum. So, free from friction, moving objects keep their speed.

∙ 14y agoYou're under the impression that when a moving object has no forces on it, it stops moving.
Nobody can blame you for that feeling. That's exactly what all of our every-day experiences
on earth tell us, and it's what everybody believed throughout all of human history, until about
the year 1500. Then, first Galileo and then Isaac newton pretty well proved that it isn't so.
If we can give you one idea to take away from WikiAnswers, that you'll remember and find useful
in every bit of Science that you ever run into, thisshould be it. This is a very powerful idea, and
it's one that you should soak up and give a lot of thought:
===> A moving object keeps moving, at a constant speed and in a straight line, until
something makes it change the speed or direction of its motion.
This is how everything works outside of the earth's atmosphere.

If my grandmas house is to be divided 9 ways when my stepgrandfather either sells the house or passes away until then he can remain in the house is pssible for me to get an advance for my part?
No. Assuming your grandmother has died, the only way you might be able to get money now would be if you can convince someone to buy your interest from you. Perhaps another family member would be interested. You would need to execute a quitclaim deed of your interest. If you can find a buyer you should have the transaction supervised by an attorney.
What are some morphine group medications one can take if allergic to hydrocodone?
You may ask about synthetic morphine-like medications if needed in the hospital. Natural morphine compounds have more of a probability, in many cases, of causing allergic reactions, whereas synthetic compounds are a bit less likely to. Warn your Dr. about the allergy you had and you can probably have a skin test done with a pssible alternative. There are some pain medications that do not irritate the mast cells( that release histamine, causing allergy) that can be used instead.

Since we want the GREATEST common factor (GCF) we want the highest number pssible. So therefore since all numbers have 5 in common and there is no other factor that they ALL have in common the GCF would be 5.
