A diver bounces straight up from a diving board, avoiding the diving board on the way down, and falls feet first into a pool. She starts with a velocity of 4.60 m/s and her takeoff point is 2.20 m above the pool. Take a coordinate system where y is positive upward and x is positive to the right. Note: Use g =9.8 m/s2.
What is her max height above the board?
How long is she in the air?
What is the magnitude of her velocity as she hits the water?
