A 61 kg bungee jumper jumps from a bridge. At the point when she is travelling 22 m/s, the cord starts to stretch. The cord stretches 28 m before causing her to stop completely for a moment. How fast is she travelling when the cord is stretched 12 m? Please show all of your work.

A bungee jumper with mass 64.5 kg jumps from a high bridge. After arriving at his lowest point, he oscillates up and down, reaching a low point seven more times in 44.0 s . He finally comes to rest 20.5 m below the level of the bridge. Part A Estimate the spring stiffness constant of the bungee cord assuming SHM. Part B Estimate the unstretched length of the bungee cord assuming SHM.

A bungee jumper with mass 58.5 kg jumps from a high bridge. After arriving at his lowest point, he oscillates up and down, reaching a low point seven more times in 41.0 s . He finally comes to rest 20.0 m below the level of the bridge. Part A Estimate the spring stiffness constant of the bungee cord assuming SHM. Part B Estimate the unstretched length of the bungee cord assuming SHM.

A 74.0-kg bungee jumper steps off a bridge with a light bungee cord tied to her and to the bridge. The unstretched length of the cord is 14.0 m. The jumper reaches reaches the bottom of her motion 40.0 m below the bridge before bouncing back. We wish to find the time interval between her leaving the bridge and her arriving at the bottom of her motion. Her overall motion can be separated into an 14.0-m free-fall and a 26.0-m...

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 90 kg student jumps off a bridge with a 10-m-long bungee cord tied to his feet. The massless bungee cord has a spring constant of 390 N/m. You can assume that the bungee cord exerts no force until it begins to stretch. How far below the bridge is the student's lowest point? How far below the bridge is the student's resting position after the oscillations have been fully damped?

A bungee jumper (mass 80 kg) is attached to a 10 m bungee cord attached to the top of a crane. For the first 5 meters of extension, the force exerted by the bungee cord increases by 2 N for every 1 cm. For any further extension, the force increases by only 1.2 N for every 1 cm.. a) Sketch the elastic force vs the length of the bungee cord. b) What is the maximum extension of the bungee cord...

Design a "bungee jump" apparatus for adults . A bungee jumper falls from a high platform with two elastic cords tied to the ankles. The jumper falls freely for a while, with the cords slack. Then the jumper falls an additional distance with the cords increasingly tense. Assume that you have cords that are 11 m long, and that the cords stretch in the jump an additional 23 m for a jumper whose mass is 140 kg, the heaviest adult...
