Using the formula:
a = (Vf - Vi) / t
Our initial velocity is 0 m/s, and our final velocity is 8.15 m/s, with a time period of 5 seconds:
a = (8.15 - 0.0) / 5
a = 1.63 m/s^2
If you know the acceleration due to gravity on the Moon, you can confirm this answer. The recorded gravitational acceleration on the Moon is 1.62 m/s^2.

↪ A satellite was crashed into a comet (on purpose of course)
↪ When it crashed a huge amount of water gushed out
↪ It was over hundreds of thousands of litres
↪ These proved that most of the water came from Comets for the world's first oceans

That is more of a History of English question.
Answer:
a.
b.
c.
d. The angular acceleration when sitting in the middle is larger.
Explanation:
a. The magnitude of the torque is given by
, being r the radius, F the force aplied and
the angle between the vector force and the vector radius. Since
and so
.
b. Since the relation
hols, being I the moment of inertia, the angular acceleration can be calculated by
. Since we have already calculated the torque, all left is calculate the moment of inertia. The moment of inertia of a solid disk rotating about an axis that passes through its center is
, being M the mass of the disk. If we assume that a person has a punctual mass, the moment of inertia of a person would be given by
, being
the mass of the person and
the distance from the person to the center. Given all of this, we have
.
c. Similar equation to b, but changing
, so
.
d. The angular acceleration when sitting in the middle is larger because the moment of inertia of the person is smaller, meaning that the person has less inertia to rotate.
