Follow-up Question
A boat moves through the water with two forces acting on it. One is a 1,875-N forward push by the water on the propeller, and the other is a 1,100-N resistive force due to the water around the bow.
(a) What is the acceleration of the 1,400-kg boat?
m/s 2
(b) If it starts from rest, how far will the boat move in 20.0 s?
m
(c) What will its velocity be at the end of that time?
m/s
