In outer space, a constant force is applied to a 30.9 kg probe initially at rest. The probe moves a distance of 102 m in 10 s. What acceleration does this force produce? What is the magnitude of the force?

A space probe is traveling in outer space with a momentum that has a magnitude of 7.5 107 kg m/s. A retrorocket is fired to slow down the probe. It applies a force to the probe that has a magnitude of 2.0 106 N and a direction opposite to the probe’s motion. It fires for a period of 12 s. Determine the momentum of the probe after the retrorocket ceases to fire.
