Answer:
[tex]d=42m(-\hat{i})[/tex]
Explanation:
For this problem, we need to apply the formulas of constant accelerated motion.
To obtain the boat displacement we need to calculate the displacement because of the river flow and the displacement done because of the boat motor.
for the river:
[tex]d_r=v*t\\d_r=5m/s*6s\\d_r=30m(\hat{i})[/tex]
for the boat:
[tex]x=\frac{1}{2}*a*t^2\\\\x=\frac{1}{2}*4.0m/s*(6s)^2\\\\\\x=72m(-\hat{i})[/tex]
So the final displacement is given by:
[tex]d=dr+x\\d=30m-72m\\d=42m(-\hat{i})[/tex]
