In bungee jumping, a bungee jump is the K= s2 amount the cord will stretch at the bottom of the fall. The stiffness of the cord is related to the W = weight of jumper (pounds) amount of stretch by the equation given. K = cord's stiffness (pounds per foot) Use the equation to answer the questions. L = free length of cord (feet) S = stretch (feet) (a) A 190-pound person plans to jump off a ledge attached to a cord of length 46 feet. If the stiffness of the cord is no less than 20 pounds per foot, how much will the cord stretch? A. less than 41 feet B. exactly 41 feet C. less than 42 feet D. more than 41 feet E. between 41 and 42 feet (b) If safety requirements will not permit the jumper to get any closer than 6 feet to the ground, what is the minimum height required for the ledge in part (a)? The minimum safe height is feet above the ground.
