Compute all parts of given question:

Question: A flea jumps by exerting a force of 1.22 x 10^-5 N straight down on the ground. A breeze blowing on the flea parallel to the ground exerts a force of 1.14 x 10^-6 N on the flea.

Part A: Find the direction and magnitude 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.)

Part B: What is the magnitude, in m/s2?

Part C: What is the direction measured down from vertical?

Please do a step by step solution since I'm kind of lost with this question.
