A 75 kg bungee jumper jumps off with zero initial speed from a high cliff with a bungee cord tied to her ankle. At some time dur

ing the jump, the bungee cord starts stretching. The lowest point in her jump where the bungee cord is at maximum stretch is a total drop of 195 m . What is the elastic potential energy stored in the bungee cord at the instant she reaches this lowest point?

Answer:

The elastic potential energy PE=143.47kJ

Explanation:

This problem bothers on the potential energy stored in a material.

Given data

Mass of the bungee jumper

m= 75kg

Height of jump down the cliff h=195m

We know that the elastic potential energy stored is same as the potential energy of the bungee jumper

PE= 1/2kx²= mgh

Assuming g is 9.81m/s²

PE= 75*9.81*195

PE= 143471.25J

PE=143.47kJ

What is potential energy?

Potential energy is the energy possessed by a body by virtue of it position.

What happens in a tug of war if the net forces are balanced and why?
FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

Balanced forces are responsible for unchanging motion. Balanced forces are forces where the effect of one force is cancelled out by another. A tug of war, where each team is pulling equally on the rope, is an example of balanced forces. The forces exerted on the rope are equal in size and opposite in direction.

How to find acceleration?
Yanka [14]
Acceleration = Change in Velocity / time
 
                a  =  (v - u) / t

Where v = final velocity in m/s              
            u = initial velocity in m/s 
            t = time in seconds.
            a = acceleration in m/s²

A proper record of the changes in velocity with the corresponding time would help find the acceleration.
