Question

a basketball player with a height of 5ft 7in stands on a 5.80m free-throw line with a 3.05m high basket. What effect will the ball's initial velocity and angle have on the shot?

Answer 1

Given ,

Height of man 5 ft 7 in

Hight of Basket = 3.5 m

[ In the image there is diagram with arranged measurements given in Question ] .

Now ,

We have to find the balls initial velocity and angle have on the shot .

We found inch then height ( inch to cm ) .To convert inch into cm we multiply the length value by 2.54 .

Now we found the initial velocity and angle

We used SinQ / g

__________________________

Formula used :-

1. Change of inch into cm = cm * 2.54 .
2. t = 4x Sin Q / g
3. R = 4 nt
