A basketball player shoots a free-throw with initial velocity vo: 7.5 m/s at an angle -28" above the horizontal. Use a Cartesian coordinate system with the origin located at the position the ball was released, with the ball's horizontal velocity in the positive x direction and vertical component in the positive y resistance. -direction. Assume the basketball encounters no air a 50% (a) Determine the maximum vertical height hma , in meters, the ball attains above the release point.
(b) Determine the maximum vertical height h a , in meters, the ball attains above the release point. Determine the time,1 in seconds, the basketball takes to reach its maximum vertical height.
