A 1.1 kg mass is pulled by a constant tension 18.3 N along a rough surface with coefficient of friction 0.3. The mass is then pulled by the same magnitude tension, along the same surface, but the tension is directed at an angle of 21.5 deg above horizontal. What is the ratio of the magnitudes of the accelerations between these two scenarios aθ/aflat? (please provide your answer to 2 decimal places)
