An astronaut floats in an orbiting spaceship because they are in a state of continuous free fall towards the Earth, which creates the sensation of weightlessness. This is due to the balance between the astronaut's forward motion and the gravitational pull of the Earth, allowing them to float inside the spaceship.
The bob of a pendulum in an orbiting space station will appear to float weightlessly due to the effects of microgravity.
The astronaut will experience acceleration in the direction of the net force produced by the jets. If the net force is greater than gravity, the astronaut will move in the direction of the force; if the net force is less than gravity, the astronaut will continue to float weightlessly. The astronaut may also experience changes in direction or rotation depending on how the forces are applied.
f = m a a = f / m = 30/90 = 1/3 meter per second2= roughly 1/30th of gravity
The momentum of each spaceship is given by mass x velocity. Therefore, spaceship 1 has a momentum of 0 kgm/s and spaceship 2 has a momentum of 2000 kgm/s. When combined, the total momentum would be 2000 kg*m/s.
The momentum of an object is the product of its mass and velocity. Since both spaceships have a mass of 300 kg, spaceship 1 has a momentum of 0 Ns, and spaceship 2 has a momentum of 1200 Ns. The combined momentum of spaceship 1 and spaceship 2 is 1200 Ns.
They float in the spaceship and eat frosen food they get exercixe by having a special machine

No because the astronaut's relative velocity will be approximately the same as that of the spacecraft.
An astronaut or a pilot can fly a spaceship.
Pedro Duque was the first astronaut in space.
Astronauts appear to be floating inside a spaceship because they are in a state of free fall, often referred to as microgravity. The spaceship is orbiting the Earth, and both the spacecraft and the astronauts inside are falling towards the planet at the same rate. This creates the sensation of weightlessness, allowing them to float freely within the cabin.
No. The reason why is, the astronaut and the spaceship are traveling at the same speed. The astronaut would have to careful though! Because, if the astronaut pushed away slightly from the spaceship as the astronaut stepped out, the astronaut would drift away from the spaceship and would continue to drift across space forever, provided the astronaut didn't bump into anything out there or get sucked in by the gravity field of a planet or a star. That's why when they do an EAV (Extravehicular Activity) they have to either be tethered to the spacecraft or have a MMU (Manned Maneuvering Unit). The MMU is kinda like a jet pack of sorts, it lets the astronaut fly around the spaceship with compressed jets of air.
