g=9.80 m/s2 on the surface of the earth.

g=1.62 m/s2 on the surface of the moon.

Question 4 (1 point)

A swimmer bounces straight up from a diving board and falls feet first into a pool. She starts with a velocity of 3.9 m/s, and her takeoff point is 2.0 m above the pool.

What is her velocity when her feet hit the water?
