You bring a small remote controlled boat with a mass of 2.2kg to a small pond to rest it out. Starting from rest, you run the boat at full throttle for a little while. After the boat has traveled a distance of 11.8 meters, it is traveling with a speed of 7.5 m/s. If the forward force of thrust acting on the boat is 12.0 N, determine the magnitude of the backward force of "water resistance" acting on the boat
