Question
Can you please help me to understand it, thank you

Transcribed Image Text:An iceboat has a constant velocity toward the east when a sudden gust of wind causes the iceboat to have a constant acceleration
toward the east for a period of 3.0 s. A plot of x versus t is shown in the figure, where t = 0 is taken to be the instant the wind starts to
blow and the positive x axis is toward the east. (a) What is the acceleration of the iceboat during the 3.0 s interval? (b) What is the
magnitude velocity of the iceboat at the end of the 3.0 s interval? (c) If the acceleration remains constant for an additional 3.0 s, how
far does the iceboat travel during this second 3.0 s interval?
