Respuesta :

acceleration is equal to force / mass
thus 30/90 is 0.33 m/s^2

Answer:

Acceleration of the spurt gun is 0.33 m/s^2

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the astronaut is 90 kg

Force received from a nitrogen spurt gun is 30 N

To find :

Acceleration received to the astronaut.

Solve :

Let a is the acceleration. It can be found using the second law of motion. The formula of force is given by :

[tex]F=ma[/tex]

[tex]a=\dfrac{F}{m}[/tex]

[tex]a=\dfrac{30\ N}{90\ kg}[/tex]

a = 0.33 m/s^2

Therefore, the acceleration experienced by the astronaut is 0.33 m/s^2
