problem reads: A crane lifts a 2000-kg mass upwards. if the tension in the cable is 20,000 N, what is the acceleration of the block? what I did is use a= f/m = 20000N/2000 kg = 10m/s square but the answer says its 0.2m/secs square I know that if I divided 2000N by 500 and get 400 and then 400N / 2000kg gives me 0.2m/sec square but i dont get why at all lol can someone plz explain this to me   | ||

Fnet = T + Fg, where T = tension force and Fg is the force of gravity. Fnet = 20 000N + (-9.81m/s^2)(2000kg) Fnet = 380 N Find the acceleration of the block: F = ma 380 N = (2000kg)(a) a = 0.19 m/s^2 which is roughly 0.2 m/s^2. | ||
