247. A tall sailing ship (m = 1.43 104 kg) is initially at rest. A steady wind blows at the 60 angle shown in the diagram and moves the ship forward a distance of 850 m. The ship's final speed is 9.0 m/s. Assuming that water resistance is negligible, what is the force of the wind on the boat? Wind 0=60 247. A tall sailing ship (m = 1.43 104 kg) is initially at rest.
