A basketball player shoots toward a basket 4.9 m away and 3.0 m above the floor. If the ball is released 1.8 m above the floor at an angle of 60 o above the horizontal, what must the initial speed be if it were to go through the basket

  v₀ = 6.64 m / s

Explanation:

This is a projectile throwing exercise

          x = v₀ₓ t

          y = y₀ + v_{oy} t - ½ g t²

In this case they indicate that y₀ = 1.8 m and the point of the basket is x=4.9m y = 3.0 m

the time to reach the basket is

        t = x / v₀ₓ

we substitute

        y- y₀ =

        y - y₀ = x tan θ -

we substitute the values

        3 -1.8 = 3.0 tan 60 -

        1.2 = 5.196 - 176.4 1 / v₀²

        176.4 1 / v₀² = 3.996

        v₀ =

        v₀ = 6.64 m / s

freezing

deposition

condensation

explanation;

melting also called fusion is the process where solid becomes liquid, sublimation is the process where solid becomes gaseous without first changing to liquid, deposition involves change from gaseous to solid state, freezing involves change from liquid to solid, boiling or evaporation involves change of liquid to gaseous state, while condensation is the change from gaseous state to liquid state.

endothermic reactions involves absorption of heat from the surroundings or the environment while exothermic reactions involves loss of heat energy to the surroundings.

in this case, sublimation, evaporation and melting are endothermic reactions (gain energy from the environment) while, freezing, deposition and condensation are exothermic (loss of energy to the surroundings) reactions.

it is the second option.
