Two forces act on a 10-kg mass. The first force has a magnitude of 15 N and pushes the

mass due North. The second force has a magnitude of 25 N and pushes the force due West.
What is the magnitude and direction of the acceleration of the mass?

net force is <-25,10> = 18.03 @ W31N
acceleration is thus 1.8 in the same direction
oops. The net force is 26.9, so a = 2.69
