A model sailboat is slowly sailing west across a pond at 0.33 m/s. A gust of wind blowing at 30? south of west gives the sailboat a constant acceleration of magnitude 0.35 m/s2 during a time interval of 2.1 s.


a) If the net force on the sailboat during the 2.1-s interval has magnitude 0.390 N, what is the sailboat's mass?

(b) What is the new velocity of the boat after the 2.1-s gust of wind? (Magnitude & Direction?)
