So does Fnet=T+W? Since the net force is the total of all the forces acting on an object? Like if the T is the same amount as the W, it would cancel out and give me 0 for Fnet. But since the bucket is accelerating upwards, the T must be greater than weight. But if that is true, wouldn't W have...

Waitt! I figured it out, do you ADD the weight to the net force?

Weight? So do I take the mass given (4kg) and multiply by gravity (9.81)? What do I do with this weight then? Subtract from the net force (9.6)?

The only information I was given was the acceleration and mass. I don't know what other force there would be except maybe normal force..?

[b]1. Pulling up on a rope, you lift a 4.00-kg bucket of water from a well with an acceleration of 2.40m/s2. What is the Tension in the rope? [b]2. I know the basic equations like net force = mass X acceleration. Is the tension my net force? Or is it my normal force? I basically have no...
