    Answer:

    The answer to the question is

    3340800 m far

    Explanation:

    To solve the question, we note that acceleration = 29 m/s²

    Time of acceleration = 8 minutes

    Then if the shuttle starts from rest, we have

    S = u·t+0.5·a·t² where u = 0 m/s = initial velocity

    S = distance traveled, m

    a = acceleration of the motion, m/s²

    t = time of travel

    S = 0.5·a·t² = 0.5×29×(8×60)² = 3340800 m far
