Answer:

Explanation:

His Kinetic energy = 1/2 m v^2

v = 5 m/s

m = 75 kg

Ke = 1/2 75 * 5^2

Ke = 937.5 Joules

This will be converted to PE when he reaches the maximum height he reaches. In other words KE = PE

PE = m * g * h

m = 75

g = 9.81

h = ?

PE = 937.5

937.5 = 75 * 9.81 * h

937.5 = 735.75 * h

937.5/735.75 = h

h= 1.27 meters
