Explanation:

Constellation: The complete sky has been divided in 88 different areas, in a way we have divided Earth in countries, not necessarily having same shapes and size. These 88 areas are known as constellations. These contains a lot of stars. When we join the brightest stars together we can imagine a shape out of them which is called as Asterism. Most of the people are unaware of this difference. Some of the famous constellations are Orion, Taurus, Gemini, Hydra, Ursa Major etc.

When an astronomer says that there is a comet is in the Orion, he means that a comet is in the boundaries of Orion constellation.

Oksi-84 [34.3K]
Force is the product of mass and acceleration .
The question is ask to find acceleration.
But acceleration is the ratio of the force and the mass.
where 600kg is the mass and 7kN is the force
NB: kilo is 1000
now we have to multiply 7N by 1000
by doing so you will have 7000N
which is the force.
Now to find the acceleration: force/ mass
which is 7000/600
therefore the maximum acceleration is 11.667
