Problem

A hockey puck leaves the origin with a speed of 6.0 m/s6.0\,\text{m/s} at an angle of 40∘40^{\circ} above the positive x-axis. A steady wind gives the puck a constant acceleration of 0.20 m/s20.20\,\text{m/s}^2 in the +x direction while it slides on frictionless, horizontal ice. Determine the puck’s x-coordinate after 5.0 s5.0\,\text{s}.
