Same problems, no time. Somebody please help me ... Just answers please. Or explain :/ desperate right now

Two horizontal forces act on a 5.3kg mass. One force has a magnitude of 1.6N and is directed due north. The second force toward the easy has a magnitude of 5.39N. What is the magnitude of the acceleration of the mass?

When a grocery bag is designed an engineer must determine the maximum force that will be exerted on the bag. So that it can be at least that strong. If a grocery bag typically holds 6.53kg of groceries and is lifted from the floor to a height of 1m in .5 seconds what is the minimum force the bag need to support?

An unattended car of mass 1165kg starts rolling down a 32.8 degree angle street. If the coefficient of friction is .17, how fast is the car traveling when it reaches the bottom of the 56.6m hill?

clearly green and purple cancel, leaving brown and red

the force on the car is red - brown

Use: F = ma, to get acceleration

Use: Df = 1/2 * a * t^2 + Vi*t + Di, to get the time

Use: Vf = a*t + Vi, to get the final velocity

to find the acceleration required to move it that distance in that time:

Use: Df = 1/2 * a * t^2 + Vi*t + Di, to find the acceleration caused by this movement

Add g to the above result for a for the total acceleration.

Use: F=ma, to solve for F
