Textbook Question
Chapter 7, Problem 38P
* BIO Froghopper jump Froghoppers may be the insect jumping champs. These 6-mm-long bugs can spring 70 cm into the air, about the same distance as the flea. But the froghopper is 60 times more massive than a 12-mg flea. The froghopper pushes off for about 4 mm. What average force does it exert on the surface? Compare this to the gravitational force that Earth exerts on the bug.
