A fisherman yanks a fish out of the water with an acceleration of 4.5m/s2 using very light fishing line that has a ''test'' value of 100N. The fisherman unfortunately loses the fish as the line snaps. What can you say about the mass of the fish? (please help)

the line that has a test value of 100 newton can't take the mass of the fish that causes line snaps
the acceleration causes the apparent weight of the fish to be greater than the line can handle.
