Five persons \(A,\ B,\ C,\ D\ \text{and}\ E \) are pulling a cart of mass \(100\ \text{kg}\) on a smooth surface, and the cart is moving with an acceleration \(3 \ \text{m /s} ^ 2\) in the East direction. When person \(A\) stops pulling, it moves with an acceleration \(1 \ \text{m /s}^ 2\) in the west direction. When person\(B\) stops pulling, it moves with an acceleration \(24 \ \text{m/s}^ 2\) in the north direction. The magnitude of the acceleration of the cart when only \(A\) and\(B\) pull the cart, keeping their directions the same as the old directions, is:
1. \(26 \ \text{m/s}^ 2\)
2. \(3\sqrt{71} \ \text{m/s}^ 2\)
3. \(25 \ \text{m/s}^ 2\)
4. \(30 \ \text{m/s}^ 2\)
