Do the same maths with vector forces instead of scalars and it comes out right.


I would kind of enjoy seeing how you would do that.

why dont you do it , and include all forces.

just use each force and the direction of each force.

we can add the resistance to the forces after
you have that done.

and its in space so you dont need to include any g forces or forces from mass due to g.

that is why we must start with the 4000N force and its direction because its in space in zero g and we cannot use static forces because there are none in zero g that would apply in this case.
