Question

NOTE: Answer of 15.2 and 15.151 are wrong answers given to me here on Barteby. Could I please have the correct answer? 

### Problem Description
A machine has a 700 g steel shuttle that is pulled along a square steel rail by an elastic cord. The shuttle is released when the elastic cord has a tension of 15.0 N at a 45° angle.

### Figure Explanation
The figure shows a rectangular shuttle positioned on a fixed steel rail. An elastic cord is attached to the shuttle and is angled at 45° relative to the rail. This setup illustrates the point at which the elastic cord is under tension but before the shuttle is released.

### Problem Statement
**Part A:**
- **Question:** What is the initial acceleration of the shuttle?
- **Instruction:** Express your answer with the appropriate units.

### Attempted Answer
The attempted answer provided was 15.151 m/s².

**Feedback:** The answer was marked incorrect. There are 4 attempts remaining to solve the problem correctly.
