A 1410-kg submarine rises straight up towards the surface. Seawater exerts both an upward buoyant force of 16760 N on the submarine, as well as a downward resistive force of 1080 N. What is the submarine's acceleration?

1 answer

the upward force is 16760N while your two downward forces are 1080N and 13832.1N that comes from gravity x mass. Subtract the two then divide by the mass of the submarine
