Which of the following symptoms is likely to afflict an astronaut in space $(a)$ swollen feet, $(b)$ swollen face, $(c)$ headache, $(d)$ orientational problem.
Which of the following symptoms is likely to afflict an astronaut in space $(a)$ swollen feet, $(b)$ swollen face, $(c)$ headache, $(d)$ orientational problem.
$(b), (c),$ and $(d)$
Legs hold the entire mass of a body in standing position due to gravitational pull. In space, an astronaut feels weightlessness because of the absence of gravity. Therefore, swollen feet of an astronaut do not affect him/her in space.
A swollen face is caused generally because of apparent weightlessness in space. Sense organs such as eyes, ears nose, and mouth constitute a person’s face. This symptom can affect an astronaut in space.
Headaches are caused because of mental strain. It can affect the working of an astronaut in space.
Space has different orientations. Therefore, orientational problem can affect an astronaut in space.

Acceleration due to gravity on moon is $\frac 16$ of the acceleration due to gravity on earth. If the ratio of densities of earth $({\rho _e})$ and moon $({\rho _m})$ is $\left( {\frac{{{\rho _e}}}{{{\rho _m}}}} \right) = \frac{5}{3}$ then radius of moon $R_m$ in terms of $R_e$ will be
