What Innovative Concepts Can Enhance Bungee Jumping Physics Research?

AI Thread Summary
Innovative concepts for enhancing bungee jumping physics research include exploring the effects of friction during jumps and experimenting with bungee jumping in water environments. Additional suggestions focus on analyzing the elasticity of different bungee cords and the impact of varying jump heights on the experience. Researchers are encouraged to consider the dynamics of air resistance and potential safety measures. Clarifying the specific problem statement could further refine the direction of the research. Engaging with these concepts can lead to a deeper understanding of the physics involved in bungee jumping.

I have been doing a research around the physics behind bungeejumping and i need some new ideas. Some of the ideas i already have done are: 1) friction while bungee jumping 2) bunjee jumping (but in water instead of just air) ...

i need some creative ideas for my reasearch.

thank you,
srijan

Is this for schoolwork? What is the exact problem statement?
 

Thread '1:1 versus 2:1 Mechanical Advantage debate'

The rope is tied into the person (the load of 200 pounds) and the rope goes up from the person to a fixed pulley and back down to his hands. He hauls the rope to suspend himself in the air. What is the mechanical advantage of the system? The person will indeed only have to lift half of his body weight (roughly 100 pounds) because he now lessened the load by that same amount. This APPEARS to be a 2:1 because he can hold himself with half the force, but my question is: is that mechanical...

Thread 'Newton's first law?'

Some physics textbook writer told me that Newton's first law applies only on bodies that feel no interactions at all. He said that if a body is on rest or moves in constant velocity, there is no external force acting on it. But I have heard another form of the law that says the net force acting on a body must be zero. This means there is interactions involved after all. So which one is correct?

Thread 'Beam on an inclined plane'

Hello! I have a question regarding a beam on an inclined plane. I was considering a beam resting on two supports attached to an inclined plane. I was almost sure that the lower support must be more loaded. My imagination about this problem is shown in the picture below. Here is how I wrote the condition of equilibrium forces: $$ \begin{cases} F_{g\parallel}=F_{t1}+F_{t2}, \\ F_{g\perp}=F_{r1}+F_{r2} \end{cases}. $$ On the other hand...
