Respuesta :

A pole vaulter have to run at 18m/s speed.

According to the statement

The typical pole for pole vaulting is 17 feet long

we use the formula

1/2 m(v)^2 = mgh

Now rearrange the terms

(v)^2 = 2gh

here g = 10 and h = 15 then

substitute the values

(v)^2 = 2*10*15

v = 17.32

So, A pole vaulter have to run at 18m/s speed.
