A mass of 100kg is acted on by a 400N force acting vertically upward and a 600N force acting at a 45 degrees angle.Calculate the vertical component of the acceleration.The local acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s2. A.1.56 B.-1.56 C.-2.43 D.2.43 . E. 3.5

Answer:

A 1.56    see below

Explanation:

I will assume the 45 degree force is upward

vertical component =   600 sin 45 = 424.26 N

 added to the other vertical force will total 824.26 N

    F = ma

   824.26 = 100 * a    shows a = 8.24 m/s upward

Now we have to assume the mass is ALSO acted on by gravity and this value is given as  9.8  ( so downward is positive)

9.81 -   8.24      =  1.56 m/s^2
