Explain the events that would cause these changes in velocity. For each claim, describe the thruster force and how that would result in the pod moving away from the station.
Claim 1: The thrusters caused the pod to move in the opposite direction.
Claim 2: The thrusters only slowed the pod, it didn’t stop; the pod hit the space station, which made it bounce and move in the opposite direction.
Claim 1 question: Firing the thrusters would have caused the pod to move in the opposite direction if . . .
Claim 2 Question: Firing the thrusters only slowed the pod, it didn’t stop; the pod hit the space station, which made it bounce and move in the opposite direction. This would happen if . . .
