Froghopper insects have a typical mass of around 12.5 mg and can jump to a height of 42.3 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)?

2065.005 m/s²

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

Now H-h = 42.3 - 0.2 = 42.1 cm = 0.421 m

The final velocity will be the initial velocity

Acceleration of the frog is 2065.005 m/s²

answer: the metamorphic rocks are formed when they are exposed to high pressure and high temperatures. this happens when one of the earth's plates comes in contact with the other plate by traveling in opposite directions, straight into each other or slipping under one another. the friction that is caused by this activity results in   melting of rocks and when it cools they are known as metamorphic rocks. this process needs a controlled amount of pressure and temperature otherwise it may turn into magma.
