Answer:
1.4 m/s
Explanation:
We can solve the problem by using the following suvat equation
[tex]v^2-u^2=2as[/tex]
where
v is the final velocity
u is the initial velocity
a is the acceleration
s is the distance covered
For the basketball in this problem, we have
u = 4.0 m/s
[tex]a=-0.50 m/s^2[/tex]
s = 14 m
Solving for v, we find the final velocity:
[tex]v=\sqrt{u^2+2as}=\sqrt{4.0^2+2(-0.50)(14)}=1.4 m/s[/tex]
