may produce poor results in the basket ball sporting activities. Literature review When the athlete or the coaches fail in making the correct moves in the paying court may lead to injury and other disastrous fallouts. Injuries occurring in professional sports can therefore be costly to both the athlete and even the whole team, with more people being at stake than ever before in the industry of sports. There is a big increase in the incidences of injury for the past few decades. (McClay et al.,1994). Through this we should stand a chance to learn the require ideas in order to make positive outcome from sports, basing the ideas more on the basket ball sports game. The ideas are depicted from the physical practical experience hand in hand with the biomechanics research which may enhance the performance for both athletes and the teachers and coaches who have interest to get the concepts involved for good performance. (Knudson, D. V. 2003).There will be more focus on the in the area that is more critical and more relevant in this study, that is, the jump shot, particularly a successful jump shot. There is important calculations that are to be made before starting the jump shot during the jump shot and after the jump shot, this is majorly for safe landing and settlement. All the areas of study in this piece of work will be based on the position of the shooter as indicated, the velocity at which the ball is released, the angle between the release point and the basket goal, the rate of spinning of the ball, and the body muscle and bio make up of the physic of the individual. They are as discussed below. Purpose of analysis All the areas of study in this piece of work will be based on the position of the shooter as indicated, the velocity at which the ball is released, the angle between the release point and the basket goal, the rate of spinning of the ball, and the body muscle and bio make up of the physic of the individual. They are as discussed below. Body position and explanation The body position of an athlete may determine both the velocity and the spin rate of the ball; hence this is considered the most important factor in the exercise. This also determines the direction that the ball will move to, that is horizontally or vertically to the goal net. The best position is known as the 'squire up' position where the athlete bends the body in such a position that it squires upwards while in motion and towards the basket goal the jump in vertical manner. There will be triggering of the stable base of support therefore minimizing the horizontal motion of the body. Fro the research (Satern, 1988) this position is best one for one to have the ability to create a very accurate shot. There exists a relationship between the staggered stance with the possible alignment of the feet, that is between fourteen and eighteen degrees from the jump and its parallel shoot of success. It is not of help or any critic that the aim to squire up the feet in a parallel stance is of any importance. (Ryan and Holt 1989). Instead of this consideration, 'face up' including the whole body may be a better way out to work with for the athletes during because there is a possibility of the skilled subjects to stagger their stance thus aligning their trunk which leads to positioning their shooting shoulder towards the basket goal. There should therefore be emphasis on a slight stagger implemented and a narrow stance of about ten inches after which the athlete jump fro a moderate counter movement which can involve a knee flexion which can be downwards to hundred and fifteen to hundred and twenty degrees. During this there is the importance of adding a base of support which is slightly less than the width of the party's shoulder. This should be staggered slightly together with the shooting foot towards the basket goal, both legs in this case should be pointed outwards for more stability. The stance that has a very slight stagger will allow for minimal forward or backward body motion, hence maintaining the alignment of the side-to-side position of the body and in the same line with the basket goal. For the best result alignment of various parts of the body with the basket goal is very important. These parts of the body include the wrist, the shoulder that is pointing forward and the elbow, together the ball right before release from the hands. (Hartley & Fulton, 1971). Another point to consider for the best results is the maintaining of the side of the body that is going to be used for shooting. Its alignment should also be in the same plane with the basket goal. This is because there is a minimal horizontal motion possibility during the jump shot. However the previous squire up that was previously used before study was done, brings about difficulties in using the correct form of shooting and the alignment of the shooting forearm with the basket goal. Short accuracy which is a good mode of determining a good shot, can be enhanced by using a staggered stance that will allow the alignment of the athlete's arm in the same plane with the basket goal. (Hung, G. K., & Pallis, J. M. 2004). This will allow for easily acquired slight along with the plane of shooting, the release arms, the ball and the basket goal. From the argument of several scholars there will be more accuracy when increasing or maximizing the height of release of the ball but this also increases the possibility of a bigger margin of error for the successful shot. (Fontanella, J. 2007). This is because it causes the distance of traveling of the ball to reduce greatly. This will in turn reduce the velocity that the arms need to execute the release of the ball and shot. But some times this creates an angle of entry that is more favorable to the athlete. This can be referred to as the method which one does not use any calculation but physical sight to overcome the basket goal. The free throw can as well increase plantar flexion that would increase the height of release which is statistically related to shot success. (Ryan and Holt 1989). The velocity of the ball release The velocity of the ball release aspect is majorly determined by the distance from the release point and the basket goal keeping in mind the time it takes to reach the basket goal.
From the above findings the velocity aspect will practically analyze the best way forward when releasing the ball in a jump shot. Displacement, in this work can be the distance between the basket goal and the point of release. A term given to the study ponts areas through wich velocity is calculated. When we decrease the height of the ball release, with a subsequent increase of the ball velocity at the instance of release may lead to less accuracy if the jumping short distance in increased. It is advised that we slightly reduce the velocity to enhance accuracy. Accuracy can also be enhanced by reducing the height of release. To reduce velocity the following concepts of physics in the area of kinematics should be taken into consideration.
Displacement: the distance between the ball release and the basket goal.
Time: the total time in seconds that the ball should take to get from the release point to the basket goal.
Velocity: Should be slightly minimized to enhance accuracy. To slightly minimize velocity, we reduce the distance and consider average time to give out the best result managed by the velocity of the …show more content…
ball. Velocity can be calculated by the division of the displacement by time taken as shown below. Velocity = Displacement / Time taken. If the displacement is to big with the time taken being very small then the velocity will be too high hence affecting the quality of accuracy required in order to hit the target. For example: Let D = Displacement T = Time V = Velocity. V = D / T 1. If D = 4m and the ball take 10 seconds to get to the Basket ball, then the velocity will be: V = 4/10 = 0.4m/s 2. And if D = 4m and the ball takes 1 second to get to the basket goal, then; V = 4/1 = 4m/s.
The second velocity, that is, 4m/s, is not good since it is too high for the purposes of accuracy. The velocity in the first statement, that is, 0.4m/s is more relative to enhance accuracy. This will lead to better result of the jump shot requirement. The angle between the release point and the basket goal It is possible to use the laws of physics to relate how important the angle between the release point and the basket goal is. This goes hand in hand with the height of release since when increasing the height of release, the angle in reference decreases. The more the decrease may lead to more in-accuracy. The angle can also be determined by the point at which an individual stands in order to release the ball. If one moves further from the basket goal may reduce the angle hence more problem of reducing accuracy. The angle should be averagely between, 450 to 500. Using the laws of physics, may therefore give one the possibility to make a successful jump shot in basketball every time. This is possible if one understands how to embed the use of angles into the playing court, by using the correct speed. The diagram below shows the best angle distance to be used in this case. Spinning of the
ball As per some recent studies the spin that occurs during the ball's time in the air can be very irrelevant to the topic. The time of the shot that the aspect of spin becomes relevant is when the ball hits any relevant point of the basket goal; this can either be the basket ring or the backboard of the basket goal. This is because spinning may reduce the velocity beyond the required point. Spinning takes more of the displacement time, hence keeping the distance constant hence increases the velocity. For example; D = 4m, and the time changes to T= 20 seconds to get to the basket goal. Therefore; V = D/T = 4/20 = 0.2m/s. This velocity is too low for other effects like one being caught by the opponent in a particular shot process. When the bal hits the back board, it is obvious that the velocity changes, however too low or high, the lower velocity makes the ball more accelerate in hitting the target and if not, time for recovery when the ball comes down. This change of velocity that is triggered by back spin may also cause the ball to go upwards hence more probability of going through the target. Its therefore important to aim at back spin because after hitting the back board the ball moves the direction of the spin hence more likely to hit the target, that is, go through the net. This concept also applies when the ball hits the ring of the basket goal. It is also obvious that the ball hits the front side, which is towards the back board. This may cause back spin and the ball moves back to the hole of the basket goal. When it reduces the velocity the movement of the ball is in a falling direction hence falls and moves back. This is the best target criterion that does not take any chances but accurate results. Another aspect that is very important from ball spin is the possibility of energy transfer due to spin. Some of the energy may be transferred to the basket that comes from friction caused by the interface contact between the ball and the net. Friction in this case becomes very important to hold the ball in a intact position to avoid back movements. This is more important since the back spin criterion is just a calibration for the shooter to hit the target through the produce or reproduce tactics of the game. This means that spinning just increases chances in case of in-accuracy. Experimental setup A study that was carried out to experiment the best moves to be analyzed physically through physical experiments by the information for coaches group can be used to determine the most important aspects to look at in this task. It involved a 23 year old young man where the following movements were examined.
Running in a straight line across the force plate at a speed of 3 m/s with the right foot landing on the platform.
A two-footed take-off vertical jump.
A two-footed takeoff for a jump shot.
Lay-up (landing).
They intended to find out how the way jumping and ball release could be best achieved in the way of hitting the target and through main accident reduction methods that are supposed to be employed. The findings are as follows:
Maximum Vertical force (body weight) Loading Rate (body weight per second) Mean SD Mean SD
Aspect of study
3 m/s run 6.2 0.1 0.2 0.1
Jump shot land 6.6 1.3 1.5 1.6
Vertical shot land 7.2 0.5 1.1 0.1
In the whole process, the values that aimed a horizontal value of output were slightly risky and could not bear good result in getting the target. However the movements are similar in the nature of force applied and the time taken has no big difference but the risk endorsed may lead to poor performance to the athletes. The possible reasons for good vertical values are due to the jump height induced wnhich may determine the angle of projection right before release which may eventually trigger spinning. Conclusion and recommendation To conclude, increasing the shot distance reduces the accuracy. This is explained in the special constraints majorly involved in kinematics a physic study on the motion and effects of energy. Decrease in ball's release height with the angle in mind may also lead to better result through accuracy in hitting the target in the game by the athlete. Distance and time taken should also be considered in order to determine the velocity and side spin. The side of spin and point at which the ball hits make trigger other key considerations like the transfer of energy to the net of the basket goal which can be a transformation to friction energy. It plays an important role in avoiding back falls. These aspects are all based on using the vertical values when determining the best results from the jump short. This means, that when the displacement is short and considerate time given may yield average velocity. This is achieved by giving more consideration to the height of jumping rather than the distance from the basket goal.
