Question

A player shoots a basketball as shown below. Points S and R are at the same height and Q is at the top of the trajectory. All statements refer to the basketball. Coordinate system: the x-axis is horizontal and points to the right, the y-axis is vertical and points up. (Neglect air friction.) equal to The acceleration at R is that at S. greater than The x-component of the velocity at S is that at Q. equal to The speed at R is that at S. greater than The y-component of the velocity at R is at S less than The y-component of the acceleration at Q is zero.

Explanation / Answer

(1) Acceleration at R is greater than that at S.

(2) X- component of the velocity at S is equal to that at Q.

(3) The speed at R is greater than that at S.

(4) y-component of the velocity at R is greater that at S.

(5) y-component of the acceleration at Q is equal to zero
