A bungee cord is 30m long and when stretched a distance x itexerts a restoring force of magnitude kx. Your father-in-law (mass95.0kg) stands on a platform 45.0m above the ground , and one endof the cord is tied securley to his ankle and the other end to theplatform. You have promised him that when he steps off he will falla maximum of 41m before the cord stops him. You had several bungeecords to select from and tested them by stretching them out, tyingone end to a tree and pulling the other end with a force of 380.0N. When you did this, what distance will the bungee cord you shouldselect have stretched?
