Homework Statement
A Federation starship ( 1.90×10^6 kg) uses its tractor beam to pull a shuttlecraft ( 2.00×10^4 kg) aboard from a distance of 11.0 km away. The tractor beam exerts a constant force of 4.0 x 10^4 N on the shuttlecraft. Both spacecraft are initially at rest.
How far does the starship move as it pulls the shuttlecraft aboard?
