Kate, a bungee jumper, wants to jump off the edge of a bridge that spans a river below. kate has a mass m, and the surface of the bridge is a height h above the water. the bungee cord, which has length l when unstretched, will first straighten and then stretch as kate falls. assume the following:
(a)the bungee cord behaves as an ideal spring once it begins to stretch, with spring constant k.
(b) kate doesn’t actually jump but simply steps off the edge of the bridge and falls straight downward.
(c) kate’s height is negligible compared to the length of the bungee cord. hence, she can be treated as a point particle. use for the magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity.

We will use a video to study faraday’s law of electromagnetic induction by analyzing the induction that occurs due a coil of copper wire sliding along an air track that passes through an external magnetic field. specifically, we will: examine some of the main principles behind faraday’s law. apply lenz’s law to determine the direction of the induced emf. take measurements of the induced emf from the voltmeter as the coil passes into and out of the external magnetic field. use the horizontal scale provided to determine the speed of the coil. calculate the magnetic field induced in the coil as it passes into and out of the external magnetic field.
