How long would it take a boat that started at rest to get to a velocity of 56 m/s if it was accelerating at 17 m/s/s?

3.29 s

Explanation:

Using v = u + at where u = initial velocity of boat = 0 m/s since it starts at rest, v = final velocity of boat = 56 m/s, a = acceleration of boat = 17 m/s² and t = time taken to accelerate to 56 m/s.

So, v -= u + at

t = (v - u)/a

substituting the values of the variables, we have

t = (56 m/s - 0 m/s)/17 m/s²

= 56 m/s ÷ 17 m/s²

= 3.29 s

It will take the boat 3.29 s to accelerate to 56 m/s at an acceleration of 17 m/s²

energy can be converted from one form to another, but it cannot be created or destroyed in ordinary chemical or physical means. do not understand what you are asking but hope this
