How can they work outside of the space station if it is traveling at 17500 mph?
Even though the space station is traveling at a speed of 17,500 miles per hour, all objects inside or attached to the space station are traveling in the same speed and direction. Relative to these objects, the space station will appear like it isn't moving at all. When an astronaut goes on an extra-vehicular activity (EVA) outside the space station, he will still be moving in the same speed and direction as the space station. Because of this, the space station will appear to be stationary to the astronaut (Unless the astronaut pushed against it, in which case the astronaut would drift away). In the event that an astronaut does accidentally push himself away from the space station, tethers and handrails allow the astronaut to pull himself back to safety.
If a 66.2 kilogram astronaut throws a 2 kilogram shotput at 32s what is the shotputs momentum?
Did you mean 32 m/s?If so, assuming astronaut is in the middle of intergalactic space:2kg * 32m/s = 64kg*m/s
