Froghopper insects have a typical mass of around 11.3 mg and can jump to a height of 58.8 cm. the takeoff velocity is achieved as the insect flexes its legs over a distance of approximately 2.00 mm. assume that the jump is vertical and that the froghopper undergoes constant acceleration while its feet are in contact with the ground. ignore air resistance. what is the acceleration of the insect during the time of the jump (before it leaves the ground)?

1. consider the case in which air fills air shocks on a truck trailer. the pressure in the shocks is 2 mpa. the temperature is 300 k. the diameter of the shock piston is 10 cm and the initial length of the cylindrical cavity containing the compressed air is 40 cm. a. the truck is gradually loaded over a period of a day in a static setting. the temperature is held constant for the atmosphere and thus for the gas shock. calculate the compressibility of the air in the shock for this condition when the truck is initially being loaded. b. if the shocks were loaded in a dynamic setting by driving over bumps, what would be the compressibility? state your assumption. c. what is the initial load on the shock if the shock is in an atmospheric 100 kpa? d. if the shock is compressed using the process described in part a, and the air shock compressed air cavity length decreases to 20 cm, what is the additional load applied to the shock?

Along the line connecting the two charges, at what distance from the charge q1 is the total electric field from the two charges zero? express your answer in terms of some or all of the variables s, q1, q2 and k =14ï€ïµ0. if your answer is difficult to enter, consider simplifying it, as it can be made relatively simple with some work.

Which of the following is not a means to accelerating? question 4 options: a)increase speed b)remain still c)decrease speed d)change direction
