The center of mass is given with this formula:

Velocity is:

So, for the velocity of the center of mass we have:

In our case it is:
Answer:
6.2N force
Explanation:
According to Newton's second law of motion, force is equal to the product of the mass of a body and its acceleration. Mathematically,
Force = mass × acceleration
Given mass of bucket of water = 6.2kg
acceleration of the bucket = 1m/s²
Force exerted on the rope = 6.2 × 1
= 6.2N
They travel the way the wind is blowing and also towards the shoreline
The correct answer is, A) Straight line motion
I took the quiz
It means the speed of the object is increasing
and
there is a positive acceleration in the direction of the velocity
hence
there is a force acting on the object, in the direction of the velocity
