Question

Tarzan is running at his top speed of 8.0 m/s and grabs a vine hanging vertically from a tall tree in the jungle. How high can he swing upward?

Answer 1

3.26 m

Step-by-step explanation:

change in kinetic energy = change in potential energy

`(v^(2))/(2) = gh`

`h=(v^(2))/(2g)`

h = (8^2)/ 2*9.81 = 3.26 m
