Answer:

   a = 1,375 m / s²

Explanation:

For this exercise we use Newton's second law where the force applied by the astronaut is F = 48.1, the body weight is W = 41.5 N and the body mass is m = 4.80 kg

              F - W = m a

              a = (F -W) / m

let's calculate

              a = (48.1 - 41.5) / 4.80

              a = 1,375 m / s²

this acceleration is directed upwards

Liula [17]

Answer:

t = 4.17 hours

Explanation:

given,

The distance between Sun and Neptune, d = 4.5 billion Km

                                                                         = 4.5 x 10⁹ Km

                                                                          = 4.5 x 10¹¹ m

The velocity of light, c = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

The velocity is always equal to displacement by the time.

                                           <em>V = d / t    m/s</em>

∴                                           t = d / V

                                               = 4.5 x 10¹¹ m / 3 x 10⁸ m/s

                                               = 15,000 s

                                               = 4.17 h

Hence, the time taken by the light rays to reach the Neptune is, t = 4.17 h
