Figure Q1 (a) shows a basketball game. Player A is trying to shoot the ball from point A, at 60∘ angle with distance 5.6 m from the hoop. The hoop is 3 m off the ground. Neglect the size of the ball. Use g=9.81 m/s2. (i) Determine the velocity, VA, required for the ball to enter the hoop if the ball is shoot at 2.1 metres off the ground,
(ii) The player playing defence, intends to block the ball at point B. He makes a jump at 60∘ angle from the floor at the exact same time the ball is shot at A. Calculate the height of point B from the ground, h, if the horizontal distance from the hoop is 0.1 m
