Suppose you toss a basketball upward while standing still with an initial velocity of 7 meters/second and it rises to about 2.45 meters. That's below the standard 3.05 meters (10 feet) for a basketball hoop, so you miss the shot. Which of these would get you the goal
a) |
Give the same 7 m/s from the same height, but early in a jump upward at 1 m/s. |
|
b) |
From standing still, give a velocity of 8 m/s. |
|
c) |
Give the same 7 m/s, but at the top of a jump that takes you more than a meter off the ground. |
