*86.  
This problem uses the same concepts as Multiple-Concept Example 17. In Problem 80, an 85-kg man plans to tow a 109 000-kg airplane along a runway by pulling horizontally on a cable attached to it. Suppose that he instead attempts the feat by pulling the cable at an angle of 9.0° above the horizontal. The coefficient of static friction between his shoes and the runway is 0.77. What is the greatest acceleration the man can give the airplane? Assume that the airplane is on wheels that turn without any frictional resistance.
