a rocket rises vertically from rest, with an acceleration of 3.2 m/s(s) until it runs out of fuel at an altitude of 845 m. After this point, its acceleration is that of gravity, downward. what is the velocity when the rocket runs out of fuel? how long does it take to reach that point? what is the maximum altitude and how long to reach it? what is the velocity when it strikes earth? how long is the rocket in the air?

A model rocket is fired vertically upward from rest. Its acceleration for the first three seconds is given by a(t) = 60t ft/s2 , at which time the fuel is exhausted and it becomes a freely “falling” body and falls to the ground. (a) Determine the position function s(t) for all times t > 0. (b) What is the maximum height achieved by the rocket? ( c) At what value of t does the rocket land?

A model rocket is fired vertically upward from rest. Its acceleration for the first three seconds is a(t)=96t, at which time the fuel is exhausted and it becomes a freely "falling" body. 1919 seconds later, the rocket's parachute opens, and the (downward) velocity slows linearly to −16 ft/s in 5 s. The rocket then "floats" to the ground at that rate. (a) Determine the position function s and the velocity function v(for all times t). v(t)= if 0≤t≤3 ...
