Homework Statement
A boat heading south initially with a speed of 10 m/s has a constant acceleration of a= (10,5,10) m/s^2
What is the velocity, speed, position and distance traveled after 30 minutes?
u=10m/s
a=(10,5,10)
t=30 min = 1800
Homework Equations
v = u + at
The Attempt at a Solution
a^2= 10^2 + 5^2 + 10^2
a=15
v= u + at
= 10 + 15x1800
=27010 m/s south
b) speed is just the scalar quantity so 27010 m/s (NOT SOUTH)
