The velocity with which the jumper leaves the floor is 5.1 m/s.
<h3>
What is the initial velocity of the jumper?</h3>
The initial velocity of the jumper or the velocity with which the jumper leaves the floor is calculated by applying the principle of conservation of energy as shown below.
Kinetic energy of the jumper at the floor = Potential energy of the jumper at the maximum height
¹/₂mv² = mgh
v² = 2gh
v = √2gh
where;
- v is the initial velocity of the jumper on the floor
- h is the maximum height reached by the jumper
- g is acceleration due to gravity
v = √(2 x 9.8 x 1.3)
v = 5.1 m/s

Answer:
To derive the fourth equation of motion, first we have to consider the equation for acceleration and then to rearrange it. or v2 = u2 + 2as and this equation of motion can be used to find the final velocity or the distance travelled if the other values are given.
Explanation:
v= u + at
s =( u + v ) t /2
s = ut + at2/2
v2 = u2 + 2as
It's either staying there or is going at the same pace
