Determine the magnitude of the resulting acceleration

Reference no: EM13670422

A sun yacht is a spacecraft with a large sail that is pushed by sunlight. Although such a push is tiny in everyday circumstances, it can be large enough to send the spacecraft outward from the Sun on a cost-free but slow trip. Assume that the spacecraft has amass of 1000 kilogram and receives a push of 22 Newton.

(a) Find the magnitude of the resulting acceleration?

____ m/s2

(b) If the craft starts from rest, determine how far will it travel in one day?

___ m

____m/s
