### Problem Statement:

For sport, a 12.0 kg armadillo runs onto a large pond of level, frictionless ice with an initial velocity of 4.70 m/s along the positive direction of the x-axis. Take its initial position on the ice as being the origin. It slips over the ice while being pushed by a wind with a force of 15.0 N in the positive direction of the y-axis. In unit-vector notation, what are the animal's (a) velocity and (b) position vector when it has slid for 2.80 s?

### Questions:

(a) What is the animal's velocity vector after 2.80 seconds?

**Input fields:**

- Number (for x-component of velocity)
- Unit-vector notation \( \hat{i} \) (for y-component of velocity)
- Units
