Certain insects can achieve seemingly impossible accelerations while jumping. The click beetle accelerates at an astonishing 400g over a distance of 0.55 cm as it rapidly bends its thorax, making the "click" that gives it its name. Ignoring air resistance, how high would it go?

The most important difference between a wedge and an inclined plane is a. their size b. their shape c. how they are used d. what they are made of

The speed of sound in ice, water, and steam is shown. what best explains the speed of sound in different states of matter? sound travels fastest in ice because energy is easier to transfer when the molecules are close together. sound travels slowest in steam because the sound has to move around the gas molecules that are far apart. sound travels fastest in ice because the temperature of solids is always greater, so the heat transfers the sound energy. sound travels slowest in steam because the pressure is so great the sound cannot travel though the steam particles.
