# During 48 minutes, Lebron James shoots and makes 30 shots. Considering the definition of a flux, what is the basketball flux through the hoop in meters squared per second? Assume the rim is a circle with a radius of 0.23 meters. Hint: recall the equation for the area of a circle.

Step 1
$6.3×{10}^{-2}$
30 shots in 48 mins $=2880$ seconds
1 shot in $2880/30=96$ seconds
Step 2
area of circle $=3.14\cdot 0.23\cdot 0.23=0.166{m}^{2}$
$flux=\left(1/0.166\cdot 96\right)=6.3\cdot {10}^{-2}{m}^{-2}{s}^{-1}$
