- High-speed motion pictures (3500 frames/second) of a jumping 230 μg flea yielded the data to plot the flea's acceleration as a function of time as shown in the figure ( Figure 1). (See "The Flying Leap of the Flea," by M. Rothschild et al. in the November 1973 Scientific American.) This flea was about 2 mm long and jumped at a nearly vertical takeoff angle. Use the measurements shown on the graph to answer the questions. Figure alg 150 100 50 0 0 0.5 1.0 1.5 Part E Use the graph to find the flea's maximum speed.
