The launching catapult of the aircraft carrier gives the jet fighter a constant acceleration of 50 m/s

Question:

The launching catapult of the aircraft carrier gives the jet fighter a constant acceleration of 50 m/s2 from rest relative to the flight deck and launches the aircraft in a distance of 100 m measured along the angled takeoff ramp. If the carrier is moving at a steady 30 knots (1 knot = 1.852 km/h), determine the magnitude v of the actual velocity of the fighter when it is launched.
