Answer:34 miles

Explanation:

Given

Man runs for t_1=1.5\ hr to south with speed v_1=8\ mph

He then continues south for t_2=24\ minutes\approx 0.4\ hr with speed v_2=55\ mph

Total distance traveled d=v_1\times t_1+v_2\times t_2

d=8\times 1.5+55\times 0.4

d=12+22

d=34\ miles

thus he travels a distance of 34\ miles due to south

how many years would it take to reach the star from earth, as measured by observers on the spacecraft
Assoli18 [71]

In other words, it would take Deep Space 1 more than 81,000 years to travel the 4.24 light-years between Earth and Proxima Centauri at its top speed of 56,000 km/h. In relation to human history, that would be more than 2,700 generations.

Nearly 40 trillion kilometers, or 4.4 light-years, separate us from Alpha Centauri. The NASA-Germany Helios probes, the fastest spacecraft to date to be launched into orbit, flew at a speed of 250,000 kilometers per hour. The probes would need 18,000 years to travel at such pace to arrive at the sun's nearest neighbor. The calculations reveal that it is almost impossible to reach the nearest star in a human lifetime, even with the most futuristic technologies.
