P1. A child in a boat throws a 3.2-kg package out horizontally witha speed of 20 m/s.
Calculate the boat velocity after that. The boat was at rest beforethe action. The mass
of the child is 30 kg, and that of the boat is 50.0 kg. Ignorewater resistance.

A boat of mass 250 kg is coasting, with its engine in neutral,through the water at speed 3.00 m/s when it starts to rain. Therain is falling vertically, and it accumulates in the boat at therate of 10.0 kg/hr.

What is the speed of the boat after time 2.00 has passed? Assumethat the water resistance is negligible. Answer in meters persecond.

A 300 Kg boat is initially moving at a constantvelocity.Suddenly, the boat feels a force due to the wind which isdirected45 degrees north of east and has a magnitude of 100 N.After 10seconds, the boat is moving at 5 m/s in a direction 30degreesnorth of east. What was the initial velocity vector of theboat?(Specify magnitude and direction).
