A basketball star covers 2.40 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 1.75 m above the floor and is at elevation 0.850 m when he touches down again.

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?
