Assume air resistance is negligible unless otherwise stated. A basketball referee tosses the ball straight up for the starting tip-off. At what velocity must a basketball player leave the ground to rise $1.25 \mathrm{m}$ above the floor in an attempt to get the ball?
A ball is dropped vertically from a height $d$ above the ground. It hits the ground and bounces up vertically to a height $d / 2 .$ Neglecting subsequent motion and air resistance, its velocity $v$ varies with the height $h$ above the ground as (A) (B) (C) (D)
