Amotorboat accelerates uniformly from a ve- locity of 7.0 m/s to the west to a velocity of 2.4 m/s to the west. if its acceleration was 2.7 m/s2 to the east, how far did it travel during the acceleration? answer in units of m.

Distance, d = 8 meters

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial velocity of the motorboat, u = 7 m/s (west)

Final velocity of the motorboat, v = 2.4 m/s (west)

Acceleration of the motorboat, (east)

We need to find the distance covered by it. It can be calculated as :

s = 8 meters

So, the distance covered by the motor boat is 8 meters. Hence, this is the required solution.
