Chapter 5, Problem 93PP

Predict/Calculate Referring to Figure 5-13 Suppose the magnitude of ${\stackrel{\to }{\text{F}}}_2$ is increased from 41 N to 55 N, and that everything else in the system remains the same. (a) Do you expect the direction of the satellite’s acceleration to be greater than, less than, or equal to 32°? Explain Find (b) the direction and (c) the magnitude of the satellite’s acceleration in this case.
