A 2.7 kg mass accelerates at 7 m/s^2 in a
direction 28 degrees north of east. One of the two
forces acting on the mass has a magnitude of
12.6 N and is directed north.
Determine the magnitude of the second
force. Answer in units of N.
I did F2= sqr rt (ma^2+ F1^2)
= 22.715 N
This is apparently incorrect. This seems too easy and yet I cannot figure it out. I'm assuming F2 is in the positive "x" direction w/o a "y" component.
Any help appreciated.
