6. Solve parts a and b: A box is at rest on a horizontal, frictionless table.

a. Horizontal force F₁ points along the positive x-axis; when it is the only force acting on the box, the box accelerates at 8 m/s². Force F₂ is also horizontal; it has magnitude 5.31F₁ and acts at right angles to the direction of F₁.

If forces F₁ and F₂ act on the box at the same time, find the magnitude of the acceleration of the box now, in m/s².

6b. A box is at rest on a horizontal, frictionless table. Horizontal force F₁ points along the positive x-axis; when it is the only force acting on the box, the box accelerates at 7.39 m/s². Force F₃ is also horizontal; it has magnitude 7.2F₁ and acts at an angle 54.3^o to the direction of F₁.

If forces F₁ and F₃ act on the box at the same time, find the magnitude of the acceleration of the box now, in m/s².
