A basketball player grabbing a rebound jumps 78 cm vertically. How much total time (ascent and descent) does the player spend (a) in the top 14 cm of this jump and (b) in the bottom 14 cm?.

positive reinforcement? ?

hi there!

out of the two, (b) precision would be more reasonable.   however, both a and b could be pretty reasonable.

d₁ = displacement of tern from arctic to antarctic = 11000 miles

d₂ = displacement of tern from antarctic to arctic =   - 11000 miles

d = total displacement for the journey

total displacement for the journey is given as

d = d₁ + d₂

d = 11000 + (-11000)

d = 0 miles

t₁ = time of travel from arctic to antarctic = 3 months = 3 x 30 days = 90 days

t₂ = time of travel from antarctic to arctic = 3 months = 3 x 30 days = 90 days

t = total time of travel

total time of travel is given as

t = t₁ + t₂

t = 90 + 90

t = 180 days

average velocity is given as

average velocity = total displacement/ total time

v = d/t

v = 0/180

v = 0 miles/day
