Suppose a mass of 50 kg is attached to a perfectly reflecting sheet whose surface mass density

Question:

Suppose a mass of 50 kg is attached to a perfectly reflecting sheet whose surface mass density is that obtained in Problem 43. What must be the surface area of the sheet so that at a distance of one astronomical unit the acceleration of the system away from the sun is 0.4 mm/s2? How does the acceleration vary with distance from the sun?
