Projectile time left in basketball


    Trailing by two points, and with only 2.0 s remaining in a basketball game, a player makes a jump-shot at an angle of 60° with the horizontal, giving the ball a velocity of 10 m/s. The ball is released at the height of the basket, 3.05 m above the floor. Yes! It's a score.
    (a) How much time is left in the game when the basket is made?

    2. Relevant equations


    3. The attempt at a solution

    I got this, maybe im reading the question wrong
    Time till at top: 0.88 s
    Total time: 1.76 s
    Maximum height: 3.82 m
    Range: 8.83 m

    I took 2sec-1.76 and got .24 and its not right?
  2. jcsd
  3. height of the basketball hoop?
  4. 3.05 m.
  5. so anyone have an idea on the time left? unless I got the other stuff wrong?

Have something to add?
