Answer:
Distance ran by basketball player = 4.5 m
Explanation:
We have equation of motion, v = u+at
Substituting
      6 = 0 + a x 1.5
      a = 4m/s²
Now we need to find distance traveled, we have the equation of motion
      v² = u² + 2as
Substituting
      6² = 0² + 2 x 4 x s
      8 s = 36
       s = 4.5 m
Distance ran by basketball player = 4.5 m
