$$h = \frac{1}{2}mgk\deltaDelta\theta^2$$ |
where h is the jump height, m is the mass, k is the spring constant and Δθ is the spring's deflection angle. From a rough estimate, we found that our mechanism should jump ~30cm, however, we only realized ~10cm of jump height. Some future iterations to improve upon would be to:
