    Answer:

    (a) F1 = 7.19N

    (b) F2 = 1.01N

    Explanation:

    You have the following two forces exerted to an object:

    F1: larger force

    F2: weaker force

    When the forces are in the same direction, to the east, the acceleration of the object is 0.919 m/s^2.

    You use the Newton second law to write the following equation:

    F_1+F_2=ma           (1)

    m: mass of the object = 8.93 kg

    When the two forces are in opposite direction, one to the east and the other one to the west, you have the following equation (2):

    F_1-F_2=ma'               (2)

    a’: acceleration = 0.693 m/s^2

    Then, with both equations (1) and (2) you have a 2×2 systems of equation.

    You can find the values of F1 and F2 by solving the 2×2 system.

    First, you sum equation (1) and (2):

    F_1+F_1+F_2-F_2=ma+ma'\\\\2F_1=m(a+a') (3)

    You solve the equation (3) for F1:

    F_1=\frac{m(a+a')}{2}=\frac{(8.93kg)(0.919m/s^2+0.693m/s^2)}{2}=7.19N

    Next, you can replace the value of F1 into the equation (1) and you can obtain the value of F2:

    F_2=ma-F_1\\\\F_2=(8.93kg)(0.919m/s^2)-7.19N=1.01N

    Finally, you have:

    (a) The values of the larger force is 7.19N

    (b) The values of the weaker force is 1.01N
