81. •Astro The froghopper, a tiny insect, is a remarkable jumper. Suppose you raised a colony of the little critters on the Moon, where the acceleration due to gravity is only 1.62 m/s². If on Earth a froghopper's maximum height is b and maximum horizontal range is R, what would its maximum height and range be on the Moon in terms of b and R? Assume a froghopper's takeoff speed is the same on the Moon and on Earth.
