Please do Q2 based on Q1 instructions. Thanks!

Your model must include the following:
The trampoline is 1.5m above the ground
The gymnast must jump at least twice in the 20 second interval
Reaches a height of 4 m above the trampoline after 2 seconds prior to
reaching an absolute maximum
At least two turning points
A local maximum at a height of 3m
Positive and negative intervals
It is important to note that the gymnast does not always reach the same height with each jump.
