    a = 8.74 m/s²

    Explanation:

    Given that

    m = 21 kg

    θ = 13◦

    F = 210 N

    g = 9.8 m/s²

    The force due to gravity

    F₁ = m g sinθ

    F₁=12 x 9.8 x sin 13◦

    F₁=26.45 N

    Lets take acceleration is a m/s²

    Form Newtons second law

    F - F₁ = m a

    210 - 26.45 = 21 x a

    a = 8.74 m/s²
