Question: A tugboat uses its winch to pull up a sinking sailboat with an upward force of 4500N. The mass ? of the sailboat is 200kg

A tugboat uses its winch to pull up a sinking sailboat with an upward force of 4500N. The mass ? of the sailboat is 200kg and the water acts on the sailboat with a drag force of 1300N. Ignore the force ofbuoyancy.

The following figures display free?body diagrams with the vectors ?? representing the drag force, ??winch representing the force of the winch, ?? representing the sailboat's weight, and ?? representing the sailboat'sacceleration.

Identify the figure with the correct free?body diagram and acceleration of thesailboat. (One of the 4 choices below)
