    Answer:

    The acceleration during the take-off from the moon is 4.3 m/s²

    Explanation:

    Given;

    the mass of the fully-loaded module, m = 2000 kg

    The thrust of its engines,  F =  8600 N

    Apply Newton’s second law of motion to determine the acceleration during the take-off from the moon;

    F = ma

    where;

    a is the acceleration

    a = F / m

    a = 8600/2000

    a = 4.3 m/s²

    Therefore, the acceleration during the take-off from the moon is 4.3 m/s²
