Q1. Two astronauts, each having a mass of 95.0 kg, are connected by a 10.0-m rope of negligible mass. They are isolated in space, moving in circles around the point halfway between them at a speed of 4.70 m/s. treating the astronauts as particles, compute each of the following. The magnitude of the angular momentum of the system.
