Answer:
The acceleration of the object = 5.7 m/s^2 up
Explanation:
Since the sum of forces on the x-axis is 0, we will make use of the forces on the y-axis
[tex]\sum f_y=ma[/tex][tex]\begin{gathered} 30-10=ma \\ \\ 20=3.5a \\ \\ a=\frac{20}{3.5} \\ \\ a=5.7\text{ m/s}^2 \end{gathered}[/tex]
The acceleration of the object = 5.7 m/s^2 up (Since the larger force acts upwards)
