Answer:

a) 98 m/s

b) 19.6 s

c)  1449.8 m

d)  29.6 s

e)  168.6 m/s

f)  46.8 s

Explanation:

Given that

Acceleration of the rocket, a = 5 m/s²

Altitude of the rocket, s = 960 m

a)

Using the equation of motion

v² = u² + 2as, considering that the initial velocity, u is 0. Then

v² = 2as

v = √2as

v = √(2 * 5 * 960)

v = √9600

v = 98 m/s

b)

Using the equation of motion

S = ut + ½at², considering that initial velocity, u = 0. So that

S = ½at²

t² = 2s/a

t² = (2 * 960) / 5

t² = 1920 / 5

t² = 384

t = √384 = 19.6 s

c)

Using the equation of motion

v² = u² + 2as, where u = 98 m/s, a = -9.8 m/s², so that

0 = 98² + 2(-9.8) * s

9600 = 19.6s

s = 9600/19.6

s = 489.8 m

The maximum altitude now is

960 m + 489.8 m = 1449.8 m

d)

Using the equation of motion

v = u + at, where initial velocity, u = 98 m, a = -9.8 m/s. So that

0 = 98 +(-9.8 * t)

98 = 9.8t

t = 98/9.8

t = 10 s

Total time then is, 10 + 19.6 = 29.6 s

e) using the equation of motion

v² = u² + 2as, where initial velocity, u = o, acceleration a = 9.8 m/s, and s = 1449.8 m. So that,

v² = 0 + 2 * 9.8 * 1449.8

v² = 28416.08

v = √28416.08

v = 168.6 m/s

f) using the equation of motion

S = ut + ½at², where s = 1449.8 m and a = 9.8 m/s

1449.8 = 0 + ½ * 9.8 * t²

2899.6 = 9.8t²

t² = 2899.6/9.8

t² = 295.88

t = √295.88

t = 17.2 s

total time in air then is, 17.2 + 29.6 = 46.8 s
