Answer:

The mass's acceleration is 5 m/s^2 in the minus X direction and 9,8 m/s^2 in the minus Y direction.

Explanation:

By applying the second Newton's law in the X and Y direction we found that in the minus X direction an external force of 10 N is exerted, while in the minus Y direction the gravity acceleration is acting:

X-direction balance force: -10 [N] = m.ax

Y-direction balance force: -m*9,8 \frac{m}{s^2} = m.ay

Where ax and ay are the components of the respective acceleration and m is the mass. By solving for each acceleration:

ax=(-10 [N]) / m

ay=-m*9,8\frac{m}{s^2} / m

Note that for the second equation above the mass is cancelled and, the Y direction acceleration is minus the gravity acceleration:

ay=-9,8\frac{m}{s^2}

For the x component aceleration we must replace the Newton unit:

N =\frac{kg.m}{s^2}

ax= -10 \frac{kg.m}{s^2} / (2 kg)

ax= - 5 \frac{m}{s^2}
