Answer 1

Answer:

0m/s²

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Initial velocity of the boat = 8m/s

Final velocity  = 8m/s

Time taken  = 4s

Unknown:

Acceleration of the boat = ?

Solution:

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with time.

It is mathematically expressed as;

        A = $\frac{v - u}{t}$

A is the acceleration

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

t is the time taken

    Insert the parameters and solve;

  A = $\frac{8-8}{4}$   = 0m/s²
