I 1998 nasa launched deep-space 1 ds-1 a spacecraft that


Question: In 1998, NASA launched Deep-Space 1 (DS-1), a spacecraft that successfully flew by the asteroid named 1992 KD (which orbits the sun millions of miles from the earth). The propulsion system of DS-1 worked by ejecting high-speed argon ions out the rear of the engine, the engine slowly increased the velocity of DS-1 by about 19.0 m/s per day.

Part A: How much time (in days) would it take to increase the velocity of DS-1 by 10800 m/s?

Part B: What was the acceleration of DS-1 (in m/s2)?

Please explain and show work so I can do it next time!
