Physics, Net force and Acceleration


A 4.0 x 101 kg wind sled is gliding East across a frozen lake at a constant speed of 12 m/s,
when a gust of wind from the southwest exerts a constant force of 1.0 x 102 N on its sails
for 3.0 s. With what velocity will the sled be moving after the wind has subsided?
