A particle P P\,P of mass 5kg moves with constant acceleration under the action of a force F F\,F N. The initial velocity of P P\,P is (3i+8j)(3\mathbf{i} + 8\mathbf{j})(3i+8j) ms−1^{-1}−1 and after 5 seconds the velocity of P P\,P is (11i−4j)(11\mathbf{i} - 4\mathbf{j})(11i−4j) ms−1^{-1}−1.
Find the magnitude of the acceleration.
Find the angle between F F\,F and the vector i\mathbf{i}i.
