Determine how far will it travel

Reference no: EM13499781

Suppose a rocket ship in deep space moves with constant acceleration equal to 9.80 m/s2, which gives the illusion of normal gravity during the flight.

(a) If it starts from rest, how long will it take to acquire a speed 17% that of light, which travels at 3.0 × 108 m/s?

(b) How far will it travel in so doing?
