A 91.6-kg astronaut and a 1180-kg satellite are at rest relative to the space shuttle. The astronaut pushes on the satellite, giving it a speed of 0.128 m/s directly away from the shuttle. 7.14 s later the astronaut comes into contact with the shuttle. What was the initial distance from the shuttle to the astronaut?
