If Micheal Jordan had a vertical leap of 1.2m then what was his hang time (time for reaching the peak and returning to the ground) and take off speed?

a=(vf^2-vi^2)/2d

solve for the going up half (ignore coming down). vf=0, find vi. then plug into a=delta v/t

fyi time going up = time coming down
