Answer:
90 m/s
8100 m
Explanation:
Given:
v₀ = 0 m/s
a = 0.5 m/s²
t = 3 min = 180 s
Find: v and Δx
v = at + v₀
v = (0.5 m/s²) (180 s) + 0 m/s
v = 90 m/s
Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²
Δx = (0 m/s) (180 s) + ½ (0.5 m/s²) (180 s)²
Δx = 8100 m
Average speed = total distance/total time taken
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>
a) 5.00 x 10^8 J
<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
The work done to move the sailboat is calculated through the equation;
W = F x d
where F is force and d is the distance.
Substituting the known values from the given above,
W = (5.00 x 10⁴ N)(10 km)(1000 m/ 1km)
= 5.00 x 10⁸ J
Thus, the work done is <u>5.00 x 10⁸Joules</u>
