Calculate Tension: 65.0kg Box with 4.8m/s Velocity

[skandaluz]

Hey guys, I'm new to this forum. Hopefully someone can help me out.

The problem is their is a 65.0 kg box hanging from a rope. The box has a velocity of 4.8 m/s in the Y direction and is speeding up at 4.8 m/s^2. The Y axis points up.

The question is, how do i calculate the tension on the rope?

TIA

Welcome! Identify the forces acting on the box and apply Newton's 2nd law. Please show your attempt.
