A sailboat is moving across the water at 3.0 m/s. A gust of wind fills its sails and it accelerates at a constant 2.0 m/s2. At the same instant, a motorboat at rest starts its engines and accelerates at 4.0 m/s2. After 3.0 seconds have elapsed, find the velocity of the motorboat. (2sigfigs)

Answer 1

V = Vo + a*t = 0 + 4*3 =
