In a basketball game, the point guard A intends to throw a pass to the shooting guard B, who is breaking toward the basket at a constant speed of 13 ft/sec. If the shooting guard is to catch the ball at a height of 6.7 ft at C while in full stride to execute a layup, determine the speed vo and launch angle with which the point guard should throw the ball.

Conservation of Energy

In physics, the rule of the conservation of energy states that energy doesn’t disappear from the atmosphere; instead, it changes its form from one type to another. Energy is one of the most important physical quantities in nature, and it cannot be created or destroyed — only transformed.
