A helicopter is flying due south with speed v₁ = 27 m/s. Then it begins accelerating in a direction 0 = 10° north of east with magnitude a. After t seconds have passed, the helicopter's velocity vector now points due east. What is the helicopter's speed vf at this moment? As part of your representation, draw a tip-to-tail vector addition diagram that relates together vi, Uf, and Av.
