    How to find the Max. distance of the bungee jumper?

    Potential energy for spring constant F=- kx, k=λ*A*x/L λ; however, now (A)cross-section area of the cord is provided; for string constant F = -λ (x/L). But will they equal?! kx = λ (x/L)?! Sorry, still not very understand! :frown:

    How to find the Max. distance of the bungee jumper?

    Please help me to solve this question because I don't have a clue to do that! Q: In a bungee jump a volunteer of mass 70 kg drops from a bridge, tethered to his jump point by an elastic cable of unstretched length L = 20m and elastic modulus 3000 N. Ifnoring energy losses, and assuming he...
