Abasketball star covers 3.05 m horizontally in a jump to dunk the ball (see figure). 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 1.95 m above the floor and is at elevation 0.890 m when he touches down again. what is his time of flight?

T = 0.90 s

Explanation:

Initially the position of center of mass is at 1.02 m

Then he reached to height 1.95 m

so total displacement of the player in vertical direction is

now we know that it will reach to this displacement when final velocity becomes zero

now we have

Now when it will reach the ground again then his displacement is given as

now total time of his motion is given as

report!

explanation:

physics means: "the branch of science concerned with the nature and properties of matter and energy. the subject matter of physics, distinguished from that of chemistry and biology, includes mechanics, heat, light and other radiation, sound, electricity, magnetism, and the structure of atoms."
