You and your groupmate are trying to lift the prototype of your project (you didn't read the diections and made a working model instead of a detailed diagram). The project is 310 kg. If your partner lifts staright up with 2100N and you lift staright up with 3000N, what is the acceleration of your project?

Figure P9.21 shows a jet of material (at the upper right) being ejected by galaxy M87 (at the lower left). Such jets are believed to be evidence of supermassive black holes at the center of a galaxy.
