A model sailboat is slowly sailing west across a pond at 0.33 m/s. A gust of wind

Question:

A model sailboat is slowly sailing west across a pond at 0.33 m/s. A gust of wind blowing at 28° south of west gives the sailboat a constant acceleration of magnitude 0.30 m/s2 during a time interval of 2.0 s.
(a) If the net force on the sailboat during the 2.0-s interval has magnitude 0.375 N, what is the sailboat's mass?
(b) What is the new velocity of the boat after the 2.0-s gust of wind?
