1) The champion jumper of the insect world. The froghopper (an insect, not a frog), Philaenus spumarius, holds the world record for insect jumps. When leaping at an angle of 58.0o above the horizontal, some of the tiny critters have reached a maximum height of 58.7 cm above level ground (see Nature, Vol. 424, 31 July 2003, p. 509). Suppose this insect jumped at the same angle and speed from the edge of a table that was 1.00 m high, and you timed the jump to take 0.915 seconds before the froghopper hit the ground. What horizontal distance would the froghopper cover for this world-record leap?

The froghopper, a tiny insect, is a remarkable jumper. Suppose a colony of the little critters is raised on Io, a moon of Jupiter, where the acceleration due to gravity is only 1.80 m/s2 , whereas gravity on Earth is ?=9.81 m/s2 . If on Earth a froghopper's maximum jump height is ℎ and its maximum horizontal jump range is ? , what would its maximum jump height and range be on Io in terms of ℎ and ? ?...
