Question

Problem 5. A 20 kg box on a frictionless horizontal surface is acted upon by two horizontal forces.When both forces act to the right, the box accelerates to the right

at 11 m/s². However, when one force acts to the left and the other force acts to the right the box accelerates to the left at 1 m/s².Find F and F2. Note that since I am not using vector notation here, it is implied that I want the magnitude of each of the two forces.
