For safety reasons, thecompany wants to select a bungee cord spring constant such that a jumperwith a mass of 98 kg will reach his lowest point that is, the point when thechange in gravitational potential energy equals the amount of energy storedin the bungee cord at the bottom of the jump - at 50 m above the ground.What is the approximate spring constant the company should choose,assuming that air resistance, friction, and the weight of the cord can beignored and that the cord immediately begins to stretch as soon as thejumper begins to fall?

The Kingda Ka is the tallest rollercoaster, standing at an astounding 456 meters! Wow! Suppose you are on the top of Kingda Ka, in a cart that has a mass of 4500 kg. What would your velocity be when you reach the bottom of the hill (assume there is no air friction, and the bottom of the hill is at ground level). Does the total energy vary throughout the drop?

A 0.40 kg block can slide up and down a rough 10-m-high, 30-m-long slope. At the bottom, a stiff spring with spring constant 800 N/m is compressed 0.50 m and used to launch the block up the slope. The friction force on the block from the slope is 1.2 N. What is the speed of the block when it reaches the top of the slope? When apply the following energy principle to this question, assuming the system is block+earth+spring+slope, which of the energy term is positive? Select all apply.

At NASA's Zero Gravity Research Facility in Cleveland, Ohio, experimental payloads fall freely from rest in an evacuated vertical shaft through a distance of 132 m. (a) If a particular payload has a mass of 28 kg, what is its potential energy relative to the bottom of the shaft? (b) How fast will the payload be traveling when it reaches the bottom of the shaft? Convert your answer to mph for a comparison to highway speeds.
When you throw a ball into the air, it usually falls back down. If you throw it a little harder, it will take it longer to fall back down. You can throw it so hard that it never falls back down to Earth. This launch speed is called the escape velocity. When you are far from Earth, the potential energy of an object with mass m can no longer be written as PE = mgh. Instead, we must use the equation М-т PE = -G .. 1" M is the mass of the planet you launch from. m is the mass of the object being launched. r is the distance from the center of the planet to the object being launched. G is a universal constant called the gravitational constant (6.67-10-" ). kg-s Notice that the potential energy is 0 when you are infinitely far away from the planet, and negative as you get closer.
