Suppose a rocket ship in deep space moves with constant acceleration equal to 9.80 m/s2, which gives the illusion of normal grav

DochEvi [55]

Answer:

a) 3673469.39 seconds

b) 6.61×10¹⁴ m

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity = 0.12×3×10⁸ m/s

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

Equation of motion

$v=u+at\\\Rightarrow 0.12\times 3\times 10^8=0+9.8t\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{0.12\times 3\times 10^8}{9.8}=3673469.39\ s$

Time taken to reach 12% of light speed is 3673469.39 seconds

$v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2a}\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{(0.12\times 3\times 10^8)^2-0^2}{2\times 9.8}\\\Rightarrow s=6.61 \times 10^{14}\ m$

The distance it would have to travel is 6.61×10¹⁴ m
