50. Suppose a person with a mass of 58 kg jumps on a trampoline and compresses
the fabric a distance of 40 cm. How high will the person then bounce above the rim o
the trampoline if the spring constant of the trampoline is 1250 N/m?



Answer :

Answer:

0.176 m

Explanation:

The elastic potential energy stored in the trampoline is converted to gravitational potential energy at the person's highest point.

EE = PE

½ kx² = mgh

½ (1250 N/m) (0.40 m)² = (58 kg) (9.8 m/s²) h

h = 0.176 m
