Question

jaden struggles with demonstrating power on the basketball court. what other skills should he develop to most efficiently help him increase his power levels? (1 point)
○ agility and flexibility
○ endurance and reaction time
○ coordination and balance
○ strength and speed

Explanation:

Power in sports (like basketball) is related to the ability to exert force quickly. Power is often calculated as \( \text{Power} = \frac{\text{Work}}{\text{Time}} \), and work involves force (related to strength) and distance, while time is related to speed. So developing strength (to increase force) and speed (to decrease time for force application) directly impacts power. Agility/flexibility, endurance/reaction time, and coordination/balance are less directly linked to power compared to strength and speed.

Answer:

strength and speed
