Here's a basketball problem: A 81.6 kg basketball player is running in the positive direction at 7.8 m/s. She is met head-on by a 98.4 kg player traveling at 5.9 m/s toward her. If the 98.4 kg player is knocked backwards at 2.6 m/s, what is the resulting velocity of the 81.6 kg player?
Homework Answers
Solution)
Solution)
Acc to conservation of momentum,
81.6*7.8-98.4*5.9=2.6*98.4+81.6*v
or v=-2.45 m/s

A basketball player drops a 0.60 kg basketball vertically so that it is traveling 6.0 m/s when it reaches the floor. The ball rebounds upward at a speed of 4.2 m/s. (a) Determine the magnitude and direction of the ball’s change in momentum. (b) Determine the average net force that the floor exerts on the ball if the collision lasts 0.12s.

A basketball player is running at 4.3 m/s toward the basket when he jumps into the air to dunk the ball. he maintains the same horizontal velocity while in the air. What vertical velocity does he need to rise 0.750 m above the floor in m/s? And at what horizontal distance from the basket, in meters, must he start his jump to reach his maximum height at the same time as he reaches the basket in m?

A basketball player is running at a constant horizontal speed of 2.5 m/s when he tosses a basketball directly upward with a speed of 6.0 m/s. Ignoring air resistance: a. Determine the magnitude and direction of the basketball’s velocity, initially, when the ball left the player’s hand. b. Determine the vertical displacement of the ball away from the player’s hands. c. Determine the time of flight of the ball given that it returns to the player’s hand at the same...
