many people say that a vaulters run up is what is building there potintial energy which is sortof true but in reality however much the pole bends is the potintial energy of the vault

What kind of energy does a pole vaulter have?

A pole vaulter has kinetic energy as they run with speed, potential energy as they use the pole to propel themselves upwards, and gravitational potential energy as they reach the peak of their jump.

Which describes the relationship between potential and kinetic energy when a pole vaulter's pole has reached its maximum bend point?

When a pole vaulter's pole has reached its maximum bend point, the potential energy stored in the pole is at its maximum, as the pole is under high tension. At the same time, the kinetic energy of the pole vaulter is also increasing as they approach the release point. The potential energy stored in the pole is eventually converted into kinetic energy of the vaulter as they propel themselves over the bar.


What energy conversions occur in a pole vaulter?

When the pole vaulter just passes over the bar, he/she is almost stationary, and certainly at the maximum height reached above the ground, so apart from a very small amount of kinetic energy as a result of passing over the bar, all the energy put into the vault is bound up in gravitational potential energy. During the approach, the jumper runs up so has acquired kinetic energy. Then during the vault he/she exerts force on the pole to gain height, and to convert the horizontal kinetic energy into a vertical direction. This force comes from the chemistry of the muscles of the body. So the overall conversion is from kinetic energy plus muscular chemical energy into gravitational potential energy, which is then converted back to kinetic energy on the descent.

What is the energy of a 500 N pole vaulter when she is 4m above the ground?

The energy of the pole vaulter at a height of 4m above the ground will be in the form of potential energy. Using the formula for potential energy (PE = mgh), where m is the mass, g is the acceleration due to gravity (9.81 m/s^2), and h is the height, we can calculate the energy. The potential energy in this case would be 1960 J.


What are the basic rules of pole vault?

The vaulter may use a pole (under his/her wieght) to go over a cross bar. If the cross bar falls off before the vaulter is off the mat, it is counted as missed. A scratch is when a vaulter's pole hits the back of the box and the vaulter doesn't leave the ground. Besides that it's a unique event considering there are vaulter have many different techniques.
