Question: Brooke almost got caught the last time she took Mayra's box of red vines. But when Mayra gets a new 220.5 pound box of red

Brooke almost got caught the last time she took Mayra's box of red vines. But when Mayra gets a new 220.5 pound box of red vines (100 kg) for her birthday, Brooke can't resist. As the party winds down and people begin to leave, Brooke waits until Mayra goes to the bathroom before making her move. But with a box this big Brooke decides to pull it instead. She ties the ribbons from Mayra's birthday presents together, wraps it around the box of red vines, and pulls with a force of 700 N at an angle of 35 degrees above the horizontal. If the coefficient of friction between the box and the carpet is 0.3, what is the acceleration of Mayra's box of red vines?
