A weight weighing 0.2 kg is attached to a string that is raised/lowered vertically by hand. When the pulling force is 2.5 N, I'm supposed to find the acceleration.
Since the normal force in this case is N=mg=0.2(9.8)= 1.96 N, would the acceleration simply be the net force (2.5 N - 1.96 N = 0.54 N) divided by the mass?
Many thanks in advance
