### Problem 13
#### a.
# Explanation:
## Step1: Calculate net force
Net force $F_{net}$ is sum of forces. Here, forces are $2N$ and $1N$ upwards. So $F_{net}=2 + 1$.
# Answer:
$3N$ upwards

#### b.
# Explanation:
## Step1: Use Newton's second law $F = ma$
We know $F_{net}=3N$, $a = 1.3m/s^{2}$. Rearranging $m=\frac{F}{a}$, so $m=\frac{3}{1.3}$.
# Answer:
$\approx2.31kg$

### Problem 14
#### a.
# Explanation:
## Step1: Use Newton's second law $F = ma$
Given $m = 2kg$, $a=5.5m/s^{2}$. So $F_{net}=2\times5.5$.
# Answer:
$11N$

#### b.
# Explanation:
## Step1: Let missing force be $F$
Net force $F_{net}=16+F - 7$. We know $F_{net}=11$. So $16+F - 7=11$, then $F=11-(16 - 7)$.
# Answer:
$2N$ to the right

### Problem 15
#### a.
# Explanation:
## Step1: Use Newton's second law $F = ma$
Given $F_{net}=- 10N$ (but wait, this might be error. Wait, no, if net force is $F_{net}$ and $a = 0.5m/s^{2}$. Wait, no, hold on. Wait, no, if $F_{net}$ is related to $a$ by $F = ma$. Wait, no, the problem says "has a net force of - 10N to the left and is accelerating at $0.5m/s^{2}$ to the right". This is contradiction. Wait, no, maybe typo. Assume net force $F_{net}$ is calculated as per $F = ma$. Wait, no, no. Wait, Newton's second law $F_{net}=ma$. If $a = 0.5m/s^{2}$, then $m=\frac{|F_{net}|}{a}$ (assuming magnitude). Wait, no, correct formula $F_{net}=ma$. If $F_{net}$ is - 10 (left), but $a$ is right. This is impossible. Wait, maybe problem means magnitude. Wait, no. Wait, assuming problem has typo. Assume $F_{net}$ is calculated as $ma$. Given $a = 0.5m/s^{2}$. Wait, no, Newton's second law $F_{net}=ma$. If $F_{net}$ is - 10 (left), but $a$ is right. Contradiction. Maybe problem means $F_{net}$ is $ma$. Wait, no. Wait, let's re - read. "The object has a net force of - 10N to the left and is accelerating at $0.5m/s^{2}$ to the right." This is impossible. Unless it's a misprint. Assume net force $F_{net}=ma$. If $a = 0.5m/s^{2}$, and assume $F_{net}$ is magnitude. Wait, no. Wait, formula $F_{net}=ma$. If $F_{net}$ is - 10 (left), but $a$ is right. Disregard direction in formula (take magnitudes). So $m=\frac{|F_{net}|}{a}=\frac{10}{0.5}$.
# Answer:
$20kg$

#### b.
# Explanation:
## Step1: Let missing force be $F$
Net force $F_{net}=10+F - 9$. We know $F_{net}=-10$ (left, so $-10$). So $10+F - 9=-10$, then $F=-10-(10 - 9)$.
# Answer:
$-11N$ (11N to the left)
