    A 60 kg pole-vaulter runs with an average velocity of 8 m/s down the track. If all of the vaulter’s kinetic energy is converted into potential gravitational energy, how high will her center of mass be elevated above her initial height? On another jump, the same vaulter reaches a height of 4 meters. If this height is completely due to the potential strain energy that is stored in the pole, not the kinetic energy related to her running, how much...

    To take off from the ground, an airplane must reach a sufficiently high speed. The velocity required for the takeoff, the takeoff velocity, depends on several factors, including the weight of the aircraft and the wind velocity. 1.) A plane accelerates from rest at a constant rate of 5.00m/s2 along a runway that is 1800m long. Assume that the plane reaches the required takeoff velocity at the end of the runway. What is the time tTO needed to take off?...
