"The force exerted by the wind on the sails of a sailboat is 390 N north. The water exerts a force of 180 N east. If the boat (including it's crew) has a mass of 270 kg, what is the magnitude and direction of it's acceleration?"
My physics homework was going just dandy until I came to this question.
I am stumped.
Any suggestions, like where to begin?
