The question is incomplete. Here is the entire question.

A jetboat is drifting with a speed of 5.0m/s when the driver turns on the motor. The motor runs for 6.0s causing a constant leftward acceleration of magnitude 4.0m/s². What is the displacement of the boat over the 6.0 seconds time interval?

Δx = - 42m

Explanation: The jetboat is moving with an acceleration during the time interval, so it is a linear motion with constant acceleration.

For this "type" of motion, displacement (Δx) can be determined by:

is the initial velocity

a is acceleration and can be positive or negative, according to the referential.

For Referential, let's assume rightward is positive.

Calculating displacement:

= - 42

Displacement of the boat for t=6.0s interval is = - 42m, i.e., 42 m to the left.
