The direction of the vehicles velocity relative to the space

Reference no: EM13666796

A space vehicle is coasting at a constant speed of 21.3 m/s in the +y direction relative to a space station. The pilot of the vehicle fires a thruster which causes it to accelerate at 0.35 m/sin the +x direction. After 46.0 seconds the pilot shuts off the thrusters. After the thruster is turned off, find:

1. The magnitude of the vehicles velocity and

2. The direction of the vehicles velocity relative to the space station. Express the direction as an angle measured from the direction.
