(3) A basketball player is running at 4.60 m/s directly toward a 3 meter high basket when he jumps into the air to dunk the ball. He maintains the given horizontal velocity. (a) What initial vertical velocity (in m/s) does he need to rise to a maximum height 3 meters above the floor?

Problem 4: A soccer ball is kicked from ground level across a level soccer field with initial velocity vector vo = 8 m/s at 0= 16° above horizontal. The soccer ball feels wind resistance which causes it to slow horizontally with constant acceleration magnitude a, = 0.54 m/s, while leaving its vertical motion unchanged. Assume any other air resistance is negligible. Choose the positive direction ofx from initial point towards final point of flight. Use a Cartesian coordinate system with the origin at the ball's initial position.
