Problem

A scooter of mass 110 kg110\,\text{kg} is moving at 4.0 m s−14.0\,\text{m\,s}^{-1}. The engine provides a forward thrust of 550 N550\,\text{N} while air resistance of 80 N80\,\text{N} acts backward. If these forces act for 3.0 s3.0\,\text{s}, determine the speed of the scooter at the end of this interval.
