A high jumper can run horizontally with a top speed of 10.0 m/s. (a) If he can “convert” this velocity to the vertical direction when he leaves the ground, what is the theoretical limit on the height of his jump? (b) How does your result to part (a) compare with the current high-jump record of approximately 2.5 m? Can you explain the difference?
