The ball is using an reaction and opposite reaction, so when you dribble a basketball you push the ball with downward force and the ground pushes the ball back up thus making the opposite reaction.
Answer:
I would increase the horizontal velocity or the vertical velocity or both to make the ball go the extra distance to cross the goal line.
Explanation:
In order to increase the horizontal distance covered by the ball, we need to examine the variables involved in the formula of range of projectile. The formula for the range of projectile is given as follows:
R = V₀² Sin 2θ/g
where, g is a constant on earth (acceleration due to gravity) and θ is the angle of ball with ground at the time of launching. The value of θ should be 45° for maximum range. In this case we do not know the angle so, we can not tell if we should change it or not.
The only parameter here which we can increase to increase the range is launch velocity (V₀). The formula for V₀ in terms of horizontal and vertical components is as follows:
V₀ = √(V₀ₓ² + V₀y²)
where,
V₀ₓ = Horizontal Velocity
V₀y = Vertical Velocity
Hence, it is clear from the formula that we can increase both the horizontal and vertical velocity to increase the initial speed which in turn increases the horizontal distance covered by the ball.
<u>Therefore, I would increase the horizontal velocity or the vertical velocity or both to make the ball go the extra distance to cross the goal line.</u>
