1. The Skate park A skateboarder starts at the top of the skate park jump and is heading down the jump. The distance along the skate jump is as marked below. The top of the skate jump starts at an elevation of 3 meters above the ground, the skate jump track reaches a minimum of 0.7 meters above the ground, and the take-off is at 1.2 meters above the ground.

True/False Statements.

When evaluating these T/F statements, assume that the forces due to friction and air resistance are 0.

The skateboarder's kinetic energy is at its max at the point of take-off (6 meters).

Energy is conserved during skateboard jumping.

The design of the shape of the track between the start and take-off points is critical to the take-off speed of the skateboarder.

If the drop in elevation between the start and end of the jump doubled, the speed at take-off would double.

The skateboarder's gravitational potential energy is at a minimum at 4 meters along the track.
