A wooden cylinder (in the form of a thin disk) of uniform density and a steel hoop are set side by side, released from rest at the same moment, and roll down an inclined plane towards a wall at the bottom. The cylinder has a larger radius than the hoop, but the hoop weighs more than the cylinder.

Asailboat is traveling to the right when a gust of wind causes the boat to accelerate leftward at 2.5m/s2 for 4s. after the wind stops, the sailboat is traveling to the left with a velocity of 3.0m/s.assuming the acceleration from the wind is constant, what was the initial velocity of the sailboat before the gust of wind? answer using a coordinate system where rightward is positive.
