Aspaceship is travelling at 20,000.0 m/s. after 5.0 seconds, the rocket thrusters are turned on. at the 55.0 second mark, the ship has a velocity of 24,000.0 m/s. what is the acceleration of the rocket?

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object is given by:

where

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

t is the time interval it takes for the velocity to change from u to v

For the rocket in this problem,

u = 20,000 m/s

v = 24,000 m/s

t = 55.0 - 5.0 = 50.0 s

Substituting,

kepler used the data from tycho blahe (his mentor) to construct the laws of planetary motion.

i think it's 35 meters
