Question: Two forces FA and FB are applied to an object whose mass is 8.0 kg. The larger force is FA. When both forces point due

Two forces F→A and F→B are applied to an object whose mass is 8.0 kg. The larger force is F→A. When both forces point due east, the object’s acceleration has a magnitude of 0.50 m/s2. However, when F→A points due east and F→B points due west, the acceleration is 0.40 m/s2, due east. Find

(a) The magnitude of F→A and

(b) The magnitude of F→B
