Force Exerted By Fleas
Part A
A flea pulls on a puck with force 10 microN at an angle of
45◦ . Another flea pulls on the puck with force 1 microN at an
angle of 0◦ . (See diagram for angle scale.) Draw vectors on
the diagram to scale representing the forces. Carefully add
the vectors tip-to-tail. (Use a ruler.) What is the magnitude
of the net force on the puck?

You are correct. Your receipt no. is 162-3641 Part B
At what angle is the net force? (Answer in ◦ using the angle
scale provided.)
You are correct. Your receipt no. is 162-7806 Part C
A third flea decides to pull the puck so that it will stop ac-
celerating. What is the magnitude of the force with which it
must pull?
You are correct. Your receipt no. is 162-7642 Part D
In what direction must the third flea pull so that the puck
stops accelerating? (Answer in ◦ using the angle scale pro-
vided.)
You are correct. Your receipt no. is 162-3806
