A flea jumps by exerting a force of 1.27  10-5 N straight down on the ground. A breeze blowing on the flea parallel to the ground exerts a force of 1.12  10-6 N on the flea. Find the direction and magnitude (in m/s2) of the acceleration of the flea if its mass is 6.0  10-7 kg. (Let us assume that Fwind points to the right. We will consider this to be the +x direction and vertical to be the +y direction.)

magnitude  m/s2

direction  ° (measured clockwise from the vertical)

A spring with force constant k = 175 N/m is attached to the ground. On top of the spring a 1.30 kg metal pan is attached. The combination could be used as a scale, but we are going to do something more interesting. We place a metal ball with mass 0.250 kg on the tray and then the tray is pushed down 0.150 m below its equilibrium point and released from rest (take this as t = 0). a) At...
