A basketball star covers 2.70 m horizontally in a jump to dunk the ball (see figure). His motion through space can be modeled as that of a particle at a point called his center of mass (which we shall define in Chapter 9). His center of mass is at elevation 1.02 m when he leaves the floor. It reaches a maximum height of 1.80 m above the floor and is at elevation 0.940 m when he touches down again.

Question
