- 3. (a) [3]moving object has elevation tion as a function of time given by h(t)=a+bt-ct^2 __ where a, b and care constants. What is the dimension of each constant? [a]= [b]= [e]= (b) [5] In the equation above, the values of the constants in FPS units are a=15,b=30 and c=18 Determine the values of hand tin FPS units, at the instant when the object reaches its maximum elevation.
- Analysis: (16 points) In the box below,write a paragraph that explains what you did in your experiment, which way gave you the best shot and why you think this happened. Make sure to include answers to the following questions: 1. Explain how you discovered the best way to make the perfect shot? 2. Is it better to throw the ball from chest level or waist level? Explain. 3. Did you prefer getting a running start to make the shot or was it easier to make a shot standing in front of the hoop? Why? 4. Explain how the distance away from the hoop matters in determining the best type of shot. square
