Question

A basketball star covers 3.05 m horizontally in a jump to dunk the ball. His motion through space can be modeled precisely as that of a particle at his center of mass. His center of mass is at elevation 1.02 m when he leaves the floor. It reaches a maximum height of 1.95 m above the floor and is at elevation 0.880 m when he touches down again. (a) Determine his time of flight (his "hang time"). (b) Determine his horizontal velocity at the instant of takeoff. m/s (c) Determine his vertical velocity at the instant of takeoff. m/s (d) Determine his takeoff angle.

Explanation / Answer

the equation of star
