The wind over the ocean blows straight North with a speed of 10.0 m/s. A sailboat sails straight North with a steady speed of 6.00 m/s, and its sail is perpendicular to the direction of the wind. Suppose the boat deploys a second sail of the same area and drag coefficient perpendicular to the wind above the first sail. What is the new steady speed ? of the boat? Assume quadratic drag for both wind blowing into sails and body...

A 379-kg boat is sailing 11.0° north of east at a speed of 1.80 m/s. 35.0 s later, it is sailing 38.0° north of east at a speed of 4.30 m/s. During this time, three forces act on the boat: a 32.1-N force directed 11.0° north of east (due to an auxiliary engine), a 21.8-N force directed 11.0° south of west (resistance due to the water), and (due to the wind). Find the (a) the magnitude and (b) direction of...

A duck has a mass of 3.00 kg. As the duck paddles, a force of 0.130 N acts on it in a direction due east. In addition, the current of the water exerts a force of 0.230 N in a direction of 52.0° south of east. When these forces begin to act, the velocity of the duck is 0.130 m/s in a direction due east. Find (a) the magnitude and (b) the direction (relative to due east) of the displacement...
