Impulse=force x time
force=mass x acceleration due to gravity
force=
impulse =3000 x 2.5= ( sorry i don't have a calculator right now so you must calculate this yourself)
I converted from kg to g because it is the standard.
Hope this helps you.
(a) The magnitude of the wind as it is measured on the boat will be the result of the two vectors. Since they are at 90°, the resultant can be determined by the Pythagorean theorem.
R = sqrt ((20 knots)² + (17 knots)²)
R = sqrt (400 + 289)
R = 26.24 knots
The direction of the wind will have to be angle between the boat and the resultant.
cos θ = (20 knots)/(26.24 knots)
θ = 40.36°
Hence, the direction is 40.36° east of north.
(b) As stated, the wind is blowing in the direction that is to the east. This means that it only has one direction. Parallel to the motion of the boat, the magnitude of the wind velocity will have to be zero.
The net force does not depend on the mass.
We have 12N to the right, and 19N to the left.
The net force is (19.0-12.0)N=7.0N to the left.
