    How Far Does Dave Johnson's Center of Mass Move Up During the High Jump?

    Oh it is gravity then! So you work out time (t=0.612) and then find displacement (s=3.67)

    So there is a force acting upward - work. Am I right?

    Do you do a kinetic energy equation? Sorry I think I'm making it more difficult for myself here

    We have been looking at Work, Energy & Power or Energy Conservation but I can't see anything relevant.

    I'm not sure about equations but I've no idea where to start with a solution.

    Dave Johnson, the bronze medallist at the 1992 Olympic decathalon in Barcelona, leaves the ground at the high jump with vertical velocity component 6 m/s. How far does his center of mass move up as he makes the jump?
