The velocity of a particle moving in the x-y plane is given by (7.87i+3.51j) m/s at time t = 7.91 s. Its average acceleration during the
next 0.013 s is (3.11 + 3.8j) m/s². Determine the velocity v of the particle at t = 7.923 s and the angle between the average-
acceleration vector and the velocity vector at t = 7.923 s.

The speedboat B is cruising to the north at 64 mi/hr when it encounters an eastward current of speed vc = 12 mi/hr but does not
change its heading (relative to the water). Determine the subsequent velocity of the boat relative to the wind and express your result
as a magnitude Vrel and compass direction 0 measured clockwise from north. The current affects the motion of the boat; the
southwesterly wind of speed vw = 27 mi/hr does not.
