This document provides calculations to determine the acceleration and tension in a string for a physical system. It first calculates the net force on the system as 50 Newtons by subtracting opposing forces. It then uses this net force and the total mass of 25 kg to calculate an acceleration of 2 m/s^2. Finally, it sets up and solves two equations involving one of the forces, the acceleration, and the tension T in the string, determining that T equals 160 Newtons.
