A 100kg astronaut (including the space suit) becomes untethered during aspace walk and drifts to a distance of 10m from the mother ship. To get back to the ship, he throws his 2.5kg tool kit away with an accelaration of 8.0 m s^{-2} that actos over the 0.50s.

a) How does throwing the tool kit away help the astroanut in this situation?

b) How large is the force that actos on the tool kit and the astronaut?

c) With what speed will the astronaut drift to the mother ship?

d) How long will it take for the astronaut to reach the ship?

Please help me find all non-zero integers x,y,z and n>2, such that

 x^n+y^n = z^n.

Please provide full proof that you have found all solutions to this equation. Please be accurate but succint. I would prefer you use less than a page for your proof. If you need more room there is space in the margins.
