At the moment t = 0 the force F = at is applied to a small body

Question:

At the moment t = 0 the force F = at is applied to a small body of mass m resting on a smooth horizontal plane (α is a constant). The permanent direction of this force forms an angle α with the horizontal (Fig.). Find:
(a) The velocity of the body at the moment of its breaking off the plane;
(b) The distance traversed by the body up to this moment.

F. Fig. 1.14.
