A toy rocket engine is securely fastened to a large puck that can glide with negligible friction over a horizontal
surface, taken as the xy plane. The 3.70-kg puck has a velocity of 1.701 m/s at one instant. Eight seconds later,
its velocity is (9.001 + 9.0ĵ) m/s.
(a) Assuming the rocket engine exerts a constant horizontal force, find the components of the force.
(b) Find its magnitude.

The 3.70-kg puck has a velocity of 1.701 m/s at one instant. Eight seconds later, its velocity is (9.001 + 9.0ĵ) m/s. (a) Assuming the rocket engine exerts a constant horizontal force, find the components of the force. (b) Find its magnitude.
(a) First, we will calculate the acceleration of the puck in order to find the components of the force. We know that ; = 1.70î m/s,
V = (9.001 + 9.0ĵ) m/s, and t = 8.00 s.
