A model sailboat is slowly sailing west across a pond at 0.310 m/s. A gust of wind blowing at 28.3° south of west gives the sailboat a constant acceleration of magnitude 0.314 m/s2 during a time interval of 2.18 s. If the net force on the sailboat during the 2.18-s interval has magnitude 0.318 N, what is the sailboat's mass?

The accelerating force of the wind on a small 250-kg sailboat is 707 N northeast. If the drag of the keel is 500 N acting west, what is the acceleration of the boat?Select one:a.1.5 m/s2 due eastb.2.5 m/s2 due northc.2.0 m/s2 due northd.3.0 m/s2 northeast

A 2000-kg sailboat experiences an eastward force of 2000 N by the ocean tide and a wind force against its sails with magnitude of 6000 N directed toward the northwest (45° N of W). What is the direction of the resultant acceleration?Select one:a.62° N of Wb.30° N of Ec.60° N of Ed.74° N of W

A yacht sailing to the east at a constant velocity took 0.2hours to sail 8kilometers. What was the yacht's velocity?

An airplane of mass 1.2 × 104 kg tows a glider of mass 0.6 × 104 kg. The airplane propellers provide a net forward thrust of 5.4 × 104 N. What is the glider's acceleration?Select one:a.9.8 m/s2b.6.0 m/s2c.2.0 m/s2d.3.0 m/s2

A boat is pulled into a dock by a rope attached to the bow of the boat and passing through a pulley on the dock that is 1 m higher than the bow of the boat. If the rope is pulled in at a rate of 1 m/s, how fast (in m/s) is the boat approaching the dock when it is 5 m from the dock? (Round your answer to two decimal places.)
