Please is this solution correct???.    My thinking.  I thought it should be the horizontal force  that should accelerate the body, not resultant force.    Please I need clarification.

glass clear:  the solution is very correct.  your thinking is very wrong.

two forces are acting on the mass.  why should only the one force   accelerate the mass and the other  force not?  who said that the one force is a  horizontal force? why should only  a horizontal accelerate the mass?

I understand sir.    But if the questions says find the acceleration  to move the body horizontally.  I can say   a  =  (3/(20))ms^(− 2)

the “horizontal” is just a product of  your wrong “thinking”, it doesn′t  exist. even it exists, you also don′t  know where the “horizontal” is. acc.  to your “thinking”, you won′t say 3N  is “horizontal” if i hold the paper  in following way in front of you:
$${the}\:“{horizontal}''\:{is}\:{just}\:{a}\:{product}\:{of} \\ $$$${your}\:{wrong}\:“{thinking}'',\:{it}\:{doesn}'{t} \\ $$$${exist}.\:{even}\:{it}\:{exists},\:{you}\:{also}\:{don}'{t} \\ $$$${know}\:{where}\:{the}\:“{horizontal}''\:{is}.\:{acc}. \\ $$$${to}\:{your}\:“{thinking}'',\:{you}\:{won}'{t}\:{say}\:\mathrm{3}{N} \\ $$$${is}\:“{horizontal}''\:{if}\:{i}\:{hold}\:{the}\:{paper} \\ $$$${in}\:{following}\:{way}\:{in}\:{front}\:{of}\:{you}: \\ $$

and what if you lay the paper on the  table? then all forces are “horizontal”.
$${and}\:{what}\:{if}\:{you}\:{lay}\:{the}\:{paper}\:{on}\:{the} \\ $$$${table}?\:{then}\:{all}\:{forces}\:{are}\:“{horizontal}''. \\ $$

that′s why i said that it′s a product of  your wrong “thinking” that you  take 3 N as “horizontal” force.

besides, it is not said that this mass  is on the earth. that you think there  must be a horizontal direction is   also just a product of wrong thinking.  the question only says that two  forces are acting on a mass. the mass  could be anywhere in the universe, or  even not in the real world at all, but   just in a fictive physical system.

Wow!! What an intense explanation. Some  things I never thought about have been  tackled here. Thank you sir.
