3) Consider a rocket in deep space (so it's weightless) with thrusters that generate a forward

force of + 500. N. If the acceleration it experiences in this scenario is + 5,00, calculate:

a) the mass of the rocket,

b) its displacement in the first 100 s, assuming it starts from rest.

    a). F = m a

    500 N = (m) (5.00 m/s^2)

    m = 100 kg

    b). Accelerating body covers distance of

    D = 1/2 a T^2

    D = 1/2 (5.00 m/s^2) (100 s) ^2

    D = 25,000 meters

    Note: I'm pretty sure the acceleration is typed wrong in the question. If so, then these answers won't be correct.
