Find what is his speed as he leaves the floor

Reference no: EM13661830

Basketball player Darrell Griffith is on record as attaining a standing vertical jump of "m" height. (This means that he moved upward by m after his feet left the floor.) Griffith weighed N. Given m, N

(a) Find what is his speed as he leaves the floor?

(b) If the time of the part of the jump before his feet left the floor was t, what was his average acceleration (magnitude and direction) while he was pushing against the floor?
