Description
Approach energy can be expressed as a conditional rise in a pole vaulter's center of mass.
Approach energy can be expressed as a conditional rise in a pole vaulter's center of mass.1
A separately established conversion fraction controls how much approach energy contributes.
When to use Pole Vault Energy Approximate Height
Use this tool to apply the stated pole vault energy approximate height operation with an explicit input and unit basis.
How to use Pole Vault Energy Approximate Height and how it works
- Establish the measurement basis and units described above.
- Enter actualInitialCenterOfMassHeight, callerIndependentEnergyConversionFraction, actualApproachSpeed, callerGravity and run the tool.
- Read result.value using the output meanings below.
- If input is rejected, correct the stated type, range, ordering or alignment issue and rerun; review successful results under the declared convention.
| Input field | Meaning | Value type | Requirement |
|---|---|---|---|
| actualInitialCenterOfMassHeight | Initial center of mass height, on the basis specified in the algorithm. | number | required; finite; nonnegative; further conditions in the algorithm |
| callerIndependentEnergyConversionFraction | Energy conversion fraction, on the basis specified in the algorithm. | number | required; finite; 0–1 inclusive; further conditions in the algorithm |
| actualApproachSpeed | Approach speed, on the basis specified in the algorithm. | number | required; finite; nonnegative; further conditions in the algorithm |
| callerGravity | Gravity, on the basis specified in the algorithm. | number | required; finite; strictly positive; further conditions in the algorithm |
Require nonnegative initial height and approach speed, positive gravity and conversion fraction 0–1. Add converted speed-squared energy height to initial height.
height = h₀ + ηv²/(2g) Apply the declared units, ordering and branch conditions.
| Output field | Meaning | Value type |
|---|---|---|
| result | Object containing the declared output fields. | object |
| result.value | Conditional center-of-mass height in the input height unit. | number |

}Limitations and assumptions
The output applies the declared operation to the values you supply. Establish the measurement basis, units, coefficients and any caller-selected rules before interpreting it. The tool does not independently collect or verify observations or decide whether a model or reference applies.
Supply explicit required fields with the documented types and dense aligned arrays. Unknown fields, wrong types and nonfinite numbers are rejected. Branch-specific constraints are explained above. A successful false boolean, negative signed difference, empty slice or unresolved tie is distinct from an input error. Very large inputs or outputs may be rejected by shared resource limits.
Alternative or Complementary methods
For a related operation, use Snowboard Jump Airtime Duration. An ideal ballistic jump model relates vertical launch speed, landing-height difference and gravity to flight time.
For a related operation, use Optimal Shot Put Release Angle. An ideal throw's range-maximizing angle depends on release height when launch speed is fixed.
