Answer:
1.47 J/kg
120 m
Explanation:
The maximum height it can jump in a single leap 15 cm, = 0.15 m
to get the kinetic energy per kg of mass, we need to find the takeoff speed. The take off speed can be calculated by using the formula
v = [tex]\sqrt{2gh}[/tex]
where h = 0.15
v = [tex]\sqrt{2 * 9.81 * 0.15}[/tex]
v = [tex]\sqrt{2.94}[/tex]
v = 1.715 m/s
energy per kg of mass =
1/2 * (1.715) = 1.47 J/Kg
TJe height a human can jump when compared to the flea is
2 m/2.5 mm * 15 cm =
2/0.0025 *0.15 =
800 * 0.15 = 120 m
