Suppose that an lowa class battleship has mass around 54,000 metric tons (54,000,000 kg) and a k-value in the equation v = vo e m of about 66,000 kg where v in the ship's velocity, vo is the initial velocity, m is the mass, k is a constant of proportionality, and t is time. Assume that the ship loses power when it is moving at a speed of 11 a. About how far will the ship coast before it is dead in the water? b. How long will it take the ship's speed to drop to 2 m/sec?
