What maximum force does the cord exert on jumper


A 200 lbm bungee jumper jumps from a bridge 130 ft above a river. The bungee cord has an unstretched length of 60 ft and has a spring constant of k = 14 lbf/ft. USING KINETICS ONLY, determine how far above the river the jumper is when the cord brings him to a stop. Is acceleration constant throughout the jump? Also, recall from earlier that you must integrate if acceleration is a function of position. What maximum force does the cord exert on him?
