Given:
The angle of projection of the basketball, θ=35°
The height at which the ball leaves the hand, h=7 ft
The initial velocity of the basketball, v=20 ft/s
To find:
The parametric equations describing the shot.
Explanation:
The range, x of the basketball is given by,
On substituting the known values,
The change in the height, y of the basketball is given by,
Where g is the acceleration due to gravity.
On substituting the known values,
Final answer:
The parametric equations describing the shot are
To solve this problem we will apply the energy conservation theorem for which the work applied on a body must be equivalent to the kinetic energy of this (or vice versa) therefore
Here,
m = mass
= Velocity (Final and initial)
First case) When the particle goes from 10m/s to 20m/s
Second case) When the particle goes from 20m/s to 30m/s
As the mass of the particle is the same, we conclude that more energy is required in the second case than in the first, therefore the correct answer is A.
