60 points help ;-; Imagine that you are playing in a basketball game. Write 3-5 sentences describing different forces observed during the game. Remember, any time an object's motion changes, there must be some kind of force acting on it.

To find the total distance of a route that changes direction, you must add up the distances ... They represent objects moving at the same speed but in different directions. ... Any time the motion of an object changes, a force has been applied.

initial speed when it is dropped is 150 ft/s

now at the same moment the acceleration due to gravity is perpendicular to its velocity

so as we know that

now we have centripetal acceleration a = 32 ft/s^2 as its perpendicular to velocity

while tangential acceleration at the same moment will be zero

so

now radius of curvature is given as

so the radius of curvature just after it is dropped is 703.125 ft
