Physics

Answer:

<em>The basketball player jumped 10 m high.</em>

Explanation:

<u>Vertical Launch Upwards </u>

In a vertical launch upwards, an object is launched vertically up without taking into consideration any kind of friction with the air.

If vo is the initial speed and g is the acceleration of gravity, the maximum height reached by the object is given by:

\displaystyle h_m=\frac{v_o^2}{2g}

The basketball player jumps up with a speed of vo=14 m/s. The maximum height is:

\displaystyle h_m=\frac{14^2}{2*9.8}

\displaystyle h_m=\frac{196}{19.6}=10

The basketball player jumped 10 m high.
