This number of 0.0400 kg for the basketball mass in the post
is not even remotely close to the real typical mass of a basketball.
Did you ever see and keep a basketball in your hands ?
Also, do you know or do you have a feeling what 0.0400 kilogram of mass means ?
If you know it, then make all necessary corrections in your post
and re-submit it to the forum after that.
If you do not know it, then learn from anywhere, before you start composing
and disseminating your problems.
