    How Does a Pogo Stick Utilize Spring Mechanics for Maximum Jump Height?

    Well since the child is moving upwards, the maximum speed has to hit before x=0 meaning the speed is going to decrease as the child moves upward. So, do I use the state when the child is at x1 = -.100 since that is when the spring will relax and the child's velocity will be at its max?? I'm...

    How Does a Pogo Stick Utilize Spring Mechanics for Maximum Jump Height?

    General Physics Homework Question! Please help! A child's pogo stick stores energy in a spring (k= 21000 N/m). At position A (x1=-0.100 m). The spring compression is a maximum and the child is momentarily at rest. At position B (x=0), the spring is relaxed and the child is moving upward. At...
