That's two equations with two unknowns. Solving one of the equations for the tension and then plugging it into the other equation gives the following expression for the acceleration.

What does it mean when people talk about g-forces in a collision? Here are some everyday examples of acceleration to give you a better sense of what's involved.

Now researchers are taking the mystery out of acceleration-induced cavitation with a new math formula that predicts when and where it may occur.

I assume the laws of physics still apply in "unintended acceleration." In particular, F=ma, "force equals mass times acceleration," implies that acceleration depends on a continued applied force ...
