(Physical Science)

Use Newton’s Law to explain why, when a 100Kg Astronaut throws a 9Kg Bowling ball forward in space, she moves backward but slower

Answer 1

Newton’s third law explain that every action has an equal and opposite reaction so throwing a 9kg object forward will push the astronaut, this weight is very small compared to the astronaut so there isn’t a large momentum made to move them.
