A basketball player jumps straight up for a ball. To do this, he lowers his body 0.260 m and then accelerates through this dista

nce by forcefully straightening his legs. This player leaves the floor with a vertical velocity sufficient to carry him 0.920 m above the floor. (a) Calculate his velocity (in m/s) when he leaves the floor.

Answer:

u = 4.25 m/s

Explanation:

The kinematic expression is as follows:

v² = u² - 2as

where

u = initial velocity

v = final velocity

s = distance

g = acceleration due to gravity .

when he reaches a height of 0.920 m above the floor the final velocity  = 0

acceleration due to gravity act opposite the initial direction of motion. So, -9.81 m/s.

v² = u² + 2as

0² - u² = 2 (- 9.81) × 0.920

- u² = 2 × - 9.81 × 0.920

multiply both sides by -1

u² = 2 × 9.81 × 0.920

u² = 18.0504

u = √18.0504

u = 4.2485762321

u = 4.25 m/s

If we go down the list,

It wouldn’t be Primary Producer because Deer don’t really produce anything

Can’t be Carnivore because deer don’t eat meat

Same with tertiary

They do eat plants. So it would have to be the last one
