Physics Simple Height and speed Question

[From: ] [author: ] [Date: 13-08-11] [Hit: ]
An Olympic high-jumper runs toward a horizontal bar with a height of 2.the ground. He begins his jump with a take-off speed of 10.2 m/s at an angle of 38.from the ground and achieves his maximum height when he reaches the bar.many centimetres does he clear the bar?......
I've had alot of trouble solving this question. if anyone can explain how to solve it with steps and explanations that would be amazing!! Thank you!

An Olympic high-jumper runs toward a horizontal bar with a height of 2.00 m above
the ground. He begins his jump with a take-off speed of 10.2 m/s at an angle of 38.3°
from the ground and achieves his maximum height when he reaches the bar. By how
many centimetres does he clear the bar?

y-yo=(vosinΘ)t-1/2*gt²
10.2*sin38.3°=4.9t; t=1.29s
At maximum height t=1.29/2=0.645s
y=(vosinΘ)t-1/2*gt²
=10.2*sin38.3°*0.645-4.9*(0.645)²=2.03…‡
2.039-2.0=0.039m=3.9cm
