A boat moves through the water with two forces acting on it. One is a 1500 N forward push by the water on the propeller, and the other is a 1300 N resistive force due to the water around the bow.
a) What is the acceleration of the 1200 kg boat?
b) If it starts from rest, how far will it move in 10.0 s?
c) What will its velocity be at the end of that time?
