Problem

A single force on a 4.0 kg4.0\,\text{kg} object has components F⃗=(8.0 N, Fy)\vec F = (8.0\,\text{N},\,F_y), where the first entry is the xx-component and the second is the yy-component. Determine the value of FyF_y required so the object accelerates at 2.0 m/s22.0\,\text{m/s}^2 in the xx-direction and 3.0 m/s23.0\,\text{m/s}^2 in the yy-direction.
