I would like to add 2 observations to the video: 1 - The name of the tool the athlete uses to vault is pole, not bar. That's why it's called pole vaulting. But, given that bar and pole can be synonyms, it's not entirely wrong; we could also call it a stick for example (like in Portuguese, in which the discipline is called "salto com vara", literally "jump with a stick"). Just that the custom is to call it pole, I guess. 2 - The energy stored in the pole isn't electrostatic, but elastic, because it has to do with the deformation suffered by the pole during the vault execution. Besides that, I enjoyed the video and find it very interesting and didactic.

@@reggaefan2700 Unfortunately this happens more often than anyone would like. But the vaulter generally has enough speed and energy to land somewhat safely in the pit. Albeit on the back of their neck after almost doing or completing what looks like a backflip. The vibration of a break on a carbon fiber pole dislocated one of my collegiate vaulters thumbs when he broke a pole. It also ripped the skin between his thump and pointer finger. Needed a few stitches. But he was back at it about a month hand a half later.

I’m hung up right now trying to figure out when they plant the pole, do they try to get it to bend in a certain direction, I think it bulges away from the side where the vaulter is gripping, right?
@beneastman92524 жыл бұрын
Lucy Foster first of all, they plant the pole around three steps back, but really start planting and dragging the pole once it feels right. When it comes to the bend, it’s suppose to bend in front of you, then out to the side once you start to put your feet in the air and move your hands to neutral position rather than in a straight line... I did a terrible job of explaining but I did my best ok
@email16v4 жыл бұрын
They don't try to bend it in any specific direction. It has to do with him being right handed and his natural rotation torquing if the pole. It is similar to a golfer hitting a ball, a passer or kicker of a football. It will tend to go one direction naturally. I vaulted in high school and used to wonder the same thing until I started bending the pole through forward momentum and it just happened.
@alexh7894 жыл бұрын
The pole is softer on one side. They have labels for when a vaulter can’t tell but normally just holding the pole in an open hand lets you know which direction the bend is. Vaulters pick up and hold the pole in a certain way so that the pole bends away and slightly to the left (for right handed vaulters) or right (for left handed vaulters) as they plant. That’s one of the reasons why you see most vaulters have a little routine in the way they pick up their pole.

it is not only the kinetic energy that is converted to other forms...it is the push with the legs and rest of body using as a level the pole just before the jump, it is also the stength that is applied to bend the pole, it is also the arms action against the ground thru the pole before the final stage prior attempting to clear the bar

Fiberglass came about in the late 40s, not 1958. Bob Mathias vaulted with fiberglass in the 1952 Olympics. 1956 Olympic Games bronze medallist, Georgios Roubanis (Greece) vaulted with fiberglass. So did new HS record-holder Jim Brewer (first HSer over 15') in 1957. Whoever puts videos together should really do some basic research first.

Was this footage of his NCAA record? Or did he go ahead and make a legal clearance without "Voltzing" the bar (the crossbar, ? He touches it with his hand as he is coming down. Whether it actually helped or not doesn't matter, this jump should have been ruled foul. Failed Attempt ARTICLE 2. It shall be a failed attempt when: a. After the vault, the bar does not remain supported by the pegs on which it originally rested because of any direct action of the competitor while vaulting; b. A competitor steadies the bar during an attempt; This video notwithstanding, I am only here because he just cleared 6.18 indoors today and I am just learning of this very exceptional young man. I am also a physicist, and the professor here made an elementary presentation, but it is far from a rigorous analysis of the double pendulum and as others have already posted, the work performed by the athlete off the ground.

EDIT - On rewatch, the Voltzing I saw was apparently a practice session. One angle from the record attempt seems to show it, but I am not going to invest in finding whether there is better evidence or exoneration. I have no interest in besmirching this young man's achievement, and if I called anyone out, it is the USATF official. I hope I have not made anyone dumber or angry.

He doesn't "lower his center of gravity" with the L shape. His center of gravity, or mass, follows a curve that he can do little to change one he's let go of the pole. By making that L shape he avoids hitting the crossbar, raising that part of his body that's closest to the bar at that moment.

@@nathanaguinalde Not sure what you mean by that. My point was that the center of gravity follows a path after letting go of the pole that the vaulter can't really change, if you ignore effects of friction with the air. The L shape allows parts of the vaulter's body to be higher, other parts lower, but the center of gravity isn't altered. The center of gravity can actually pass below the crossbar.
