Sandy and Chris stand on the edge of a cliff and throw identical mass rocks at the same speed. Sandy throws her rock horizontally while Chris throws his upward at an angle of 45° to the horizontal, terms on the left to the appropriate blanks on the right to complete the sentences. Terms can be used in once. Reset Hel the same as Both rocks are thrown from the same height. Therefore, the initial potential energy of Sandy's rock is smaller than the initial potential energy of Chris's rock. greater than The rocks have the same initial speed. Therefore, the initial kinetic energy of Sandy's rock is the initial kinetic energy of Chris's rock. So, the total energy of Sandy's rock is the total energy of Chris's rock. Both rocks reach the ground at the same height. Therefore, the final potential energy of Sandy's rock is that of Chris's rock. Therefore, the kinetic energy (and the speed) of Sandy's rock is that of Chris's rock.

The Flybar high-tech pogo stick is advertised as being capable of launching jumpers up to 6 ft. The ad says that the minimum weight of a jumper is 120 lb and the maximum weight is 250 lb. It also says that the pogo stick uses a patented system of elastometric rubber springs that provides up to 1200 lbs of thrust, something common helical spring sticks simply cannot achieve (rubber has 10 times the energy storing capability of steel). a. Use Figure P8.32 to estimate the maximum compression of the pogo sticks spring. Include the uncertainty in your estimate. b. What is the effective spring constant of the elastometric rubber springs? Comment on the claim that rubber has 10 times the energy-storing capability of steel. c. Check the ads claim that the maximum height a jumper can achieve is 6 ft.
