6. [In this question \(\mathbf { i }\) and \(\mathbf { j }\) are horizontal unit vectors due east and due north respectively]
Two forces \(\mathbf { F } _ { 1 }\) and \(\mathbf { F } _ { 2 }\) act on a particle \(P\) of mass 0.5 kg .
\(\mathbf { F } _ { 1 } = ( 4 \mathbf { i } - 6 \mathbf { j } ) \mathrm { N }\) and \(\mathbf { F } _ { 2 } = ( p \mathbf { i } + q \mathbf { j } ) \mathrm { N }\).
Given that the resultant force of \(\mathbf { F } _ { 1 }\) and \(\mathbf { F } _ { 2 }\) is in the same direction as \(- 2 \mathbf { i } - \mathbf { j }\),
- show that \(p - 2 q = - 16\)
Given that \(q = 3\)
- find the magnitude of the acceleration of \(P\),
- find the direction of the acceleration of \(P\), giving your answer as a bearing to the nearest degree.
