A boat is sailing east with velocity v0 = 5 m/s and acceleration
a = 0.8 m/s2 at an angle θ = 40 deg North of East.

(a) What is the speed of the boat at time t = 6 seconds later?
(b) What is the direction of motion of the boat at time t = 6 seconds later?


(a) The speed of the boat vf = m/s
(b) The direction of the boat θf = deg
