Question

Based on the data given, in what direction will the car accelerate?

A.
toward the left


B.
toward the right


C.
downward


D.
upward

Answer 1

The answer is letter A. toward the left

Since the right vector only contains 5000 N of force, the left vector is left with 1000 N. This indicates that the direction of the force can only go to the left, since the forces of up and down cancel each other.
