The hang time of a basketball player who jumps a vertical distance of 2 feet (0.6 m) is about 2/3 second. What will be the hang time if the player reaches the same height while jumping 4 feet (1.2 m) horizontally?

ANSWER: the height is same either way and hang time is same either way. EXPLANATION : suppose if a basketball player jumps vertically will have a hang time around half a second. The remaining half a second he spends in the top of the jump.
