A satellite in outer space is moving at a constant velocity of 20.5 m/s in the +y direction when one of its onboard thruster turns on, causing an acceleration of 0.390 m/s2 in the +x direction. The acceleration lasts for 41.0 s, at which point the thruster turns off.
a) What is the magnitude of the satellite's velocity when the thruster turns off? (m/s)
b) What is the direction of the satellite's velocity when the thruster turns off? Give your answer as an angle measured counterclockwise from the +x-axis. (° counterclockwise from the +x-axis)

A space vehicle is coasting at a constant velocity of 15.7 m/s in the +y direction relative to a space station. The pilot of the vehicle fires a RCS (reaction control system) thruster, which causes it to accelerate at 0.342 m/s2 in the +x direction. After 34.7 s, the pilot shuts off the RCS thruster. After the RCS thruster is turned off, find (a) the magnitude and (b) the direction of the vehicle's velocity relative to the space station. Express...

1. An object is originally moving in the +x direction at 16 m/s and a constant acceleration is applied to it. When it is at a displacement of 7 meters in the +x direction it is moving in the -x direction at 6 m/s. What is the acceleration of the object in m/s2? If in the -x direction, include a negative sign. 2. An object travels in the +x direction for 6 meters for 3.4 seconds and then, immediately, changes...

An object is originally moving at 3.5 m/s in the negative x direction with a constant acceleration of 2.4 m/s2 in the negative x direction for 5.1 seconds. Then (immediately) a constant acceleration is applied to in the positive x direction. After some time, the average velocity for the entire trip is 0 m/s., and at that time, the object is moving at 61.2 m/s in the positive x direction. How long was the acceleration applied in the positive x...
