A pole-vaulter converts the kinetic energy of running to elastic potential energy in the pole, which is then converted to gravitational potential energy. If a pole-vaulter's center of gravity is 1.3 m above the ground while he sprints at 10.3 m/s, what is the maximum height of his center of gravity during the vault? For an extended object, the gravitational potential energy is U = mgh, where h is the height of the center of gravity
