Physics

A person is pulling a 40 kg block of ice across an icy surfaceat a 25 degree angle. If the person is pulling with a force of 42N, what is the magnitude of the acceleration of the block of ice?you may ignore drag, but not friction. Us=.1 and Uk=.03

I got this wrong on the homework and my teacher said that thenormal forces does not equal mg here and that the tension is\"pulling up\"
