Hummingbirds may seem  fragile, but their wings are capable of sustaining very large forces and accelerations. Figure P14.16 shows data for the vertical position of the wing tip of a rufous hummingbird. What is the maximum acceleration of the wing tips, in \(\mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}\) and in units of \(g\) ?
