Sorry if its unclear. I tried to phrase it from what I've got so far.
The formula you gave me got the right answer though. My homework is weird in that it provides the answer but wants you to solve for it.
It was
Hannah pulls a 10 kg mass with a force of 65 N at an angle of 30 degrees. Assume there is no friction.
1. Draw a FBD (done)
2. Determine the acceleration (it ended up being 5.63)
3. Determine normal force (was 65.5 N)
4. How far will the mass travel in 5 seconds. (70.4, btw thanks Petie)
I didn't mean for it to be confusing.
Thinking about it, I guess its kind of like the math problems where Stacy's mom buys 670 watermelons and eats 360. lol
