The solution

Solved with NewtonsSecondLaw

Given

$m = 5$ kg
$F_{p1} = 8$ N
$F_{p2} = 6$ N
$F_{p1,x} = F_{p1}$ from “at right angles to each other”
$F_{p1,y} = 0$ from “at right angles to each other”
$F_{p2,x} = 0$ from “at right angles to each other”
$F_{p2,y} = F_{p2}$ from “at right angles to each other”

Find $a$ .

Working

at right angles to each other (force on body by pusher1 during pushed along x) $F_{p1,x} = F_{p1}$
$F_{p1,x} = 8$
$F_{p1,x} = 8$ N
at right angles to each other (force on body by pusher2 during pushed along x) $F_{p2,x} = 0$
$F_{p2,x} = 0$ N
net force is the resultant(body, pushed, x) $F_{net,x} = F_{p1,x} + F_{p2,x} + 0$
$F_{net,x} = 8 + 0 + 0$
$F_{net,x} = 8$ N
second law(pushed, x) $F_{net,x} = m \cdot a_{x}$
$8 = 5 \cdot a_{x}$
$a_{x} = 1.6$ m/s²
at right angles to each other (force on body by pusher1 during pushed along y) $F_{p1,y} = 0$
$F_{p1,y} = 0$ N
at right angles to each other (force on body by pusher2 during pushed along y) $F_{p2,y} = F_{p2}$
$F_{p2,y} = 6$
$F_{p2,y} = 6$ N
net force is the resultant(body, pushed, y) $F_{net,y} = F_{p1,y} + F_{p2,y} + 0$
$F_{net,y} = 0 + 6 + 0$
$F_{net,y} = 6$ N
second law(pushed, y) $F_{net,y} = m \cdot a_{y}$
$6 = 5 \cdot a_{y}$
$a_{y} = 1.2$ m/s²
magnitude from components(acceleration of body during pushed) $a = \sqrt{{a_{x}}^{2} + {a_{y}}^{2}}$
$a = \sqrt{{1.6}^{2} + {1.2}^{2}}$
$a = 2$ m/s²

Conclusion

The two forces are perpendicular, so the net force is their resultant; Newton's second law gives the acceleration.
