A bungee jumper plans to bungee jump from a bridge 74.0 m above the ground. He plans to use a uniform elastic cord, tied to a harness around his body, to stop his fall at a point 6.00 m above the water. Model his body as a particle and the cord as having negligible mass and obeying Hooke's law. In a preliminary test he finds that when hanging at rest from a 5.00 m length of the cord, his body...

A 52.0-kg sandbag falls off a rooftop that is 22.0 m above the ground. The collision between the sandbag and the ground lasts for a total of 17.0 ms. What is the magnitude of the average force exerted on the sandbag by the ground during the collision? I don't even know where to start... what formulas should I be using?

A photograph was taken from an altitude of 1700.0 m. above datum. If the average elevation of the project area is 250.0 m above datum, and the focal length of the camera is 208.90 mm., What is the ground coverage if the format of the photograph is 23.0 cm x 23.0 cm? If the percentage end lap is 65%, what is the ground area (in sq. meters) of the end lap? What was the air base? If the aircraft flew...

You are standing at a base of a Ferris Wheel which is 4 m above ground while your friend is riding. The Ferris Wheel is 8m in diameter. Describe how the shape of the sine curve models the distance your friend is to the platform you are on. Identify the function that will model this situation as well as a function that will model the if we measure his distance to the ground. In your explanation use the following terms:...
