Obtain the magnitude of the acceleration of the spacecraft

Reference no: EM13674887

A 72.5 kilogram astronaut pushes to the left on a spacecraft with a force in "gravity-free" space. The spacecraft has a total mass of 1.3 × 10⁴ kilogram. During the push, the astronaut accelerates to the right with an acceleration of 0.28 m/s². Obtain the magnitude of the acceleration of the spacecraft.
