Bungee Jump

     Aedin is planning on building a bungee jump tower in his backyard. He wants a ride that last for five seconds. The town says he may not build a tower more than 50 meters tall. Avery says the tower would need to more than 50 meters tall to get a five second ride. Macey disagrees saying the rate of fall is just 9.8 meters per second squared due to gravity.  Therefore the tower would only need to be 49 meters tall. Who is correct Avery or Macey? Would Aedin be allowed to build his five second bungee jump?

  4. Avery is right because macy is wrong.

  5. Macey because friction and gravity will be pulling on the ride slowing it down.

  7. Macey why because friction and gravity will be pulling on the ride slowing it down.

  10. Macey would be right because gravity and friction would be pulling down on the ride, so it would slow down.

  11. I think Macy because gravity and friction will be pulling the ride down and slowing it down.

  12. Macey is right because 50 meters is closer to a 5 second ride and no Aedin could not do the bunge jump.

  13. macey is right because 9.8 times 5 is 49 meters.And he wants a FIVE second ride.

  16. It can't be five seconds cuz if you saw the picture the ride would need to be 125 M to be 5 seconds

  20. Macey is correct because gravity will pull him down fast so here should be able to build the tower.

  34. Macey because friction and will be pulling on the ride and slowing it down.

  35. I think that Macey is correct because of the friction would slow it down so that he wouldn't hit the ground as early.

  36. Macey is right and he can still jump his bungee jump.

    macey is correct cause the friction and gravity is slowing down when it goes down.
