A 1200-kg car is stalled on an icy patch of road. Two ropes attached to it are used to exert forces F1 = 800 N at 35o North of East, and F2 = 600 N at 25o South of East. What is the acceleration of the car? Assume that the icy conditions render any frictional effects negligible.
Answer: 1.01 m/s2 at 9.7o North of East
