A basketball player makes a shot from a height of 2.50 m at an angle of 30 degrees above
the horizontal. The horizontal distance between the player and the hoop is 6.00 m. The
hoop is 3.00m above the ground. Find the magnitude of the initial velocity of the ball
which will cause it to go into the basket is.
answer is 8.91m/s
given:
x direction--> delta x=6m Vi=Vcos30 a=0
y direction--> delta y=0.5m Vi=Vsin30 a= -9.8
v^2=Vi^2+2a*x ?( i think|)
i am a bit confused a little help please help
