A child is flying a large kite of mass 3.7 kg on a windy day. At the moment shown the tension from the string on the kite has a magnitude of 11 N and makes an angle of θ = 33.9∘ from the vertical, and the acceleration of the kite has a magnitude of ak = 7 m/s^2 and makes an angle of ϕ = 38.9∘ from the vertical as shown in the figure below. The only forces felt by the kite are its own weight, the tension from the string, and a force from the wind. Find the Magnitude of the horizontal component of Fwk. Find the Magnitude of the vertical componenet of Fwk. I have attached my work to show how I got my answers. When I entered them, they were wrong. What am I doing wrong and can you please show me how to do the problem correctly?
