PLEASE HELP!! A fisherman pulls a boat towards land,
The forces acting on the boat are shown in Diagram 1
The fisherman exerts a force of 300 N on the boat
The sea exerts a resistive force of 250 N on the boat.
Diagram 1
250N
300N

Describe the motion of the boat.​

The boat will move in the direction of the force exerted.

Explanation:

To describe the motion of the boat, we shall first obtain the net force acting on the boat. This can be obtained as illustrated below:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Force exerted (Fₑ) = 300 N

Resistive force (Fᵣ) = 250 N

Net force (Fₙ) =?

Fₙ = Fₑ – Fᵣ

Fₙ = 300 – 250

Fₙ = 50 N

Thus, the net force acting on the boat is 50 N in the direction of the force exerted.

Since the net force is in the direction of the force exerted, the boat will move in the direction of the force exerted..!
