1 A bungee jumper of mass 80 kg steps off a high bridge with an elastic rope attached to her ankles. She is assumed to fall vertically from rest and the air resistance she experiences is modelled as a constant force of 32 N . The rope has natural length 4 m and modulus of elasticity 470 N . By considering energy, determine the total distance she falls before first coming to instantaneous rest.
