Q. A rocket is fired and ascends with constant vertical acceleration of $10m/s^2$ for 1 minute. Its fuel is exhausted and it continues as a free particle. The maximum altitude reached is $(g=10m/s^2)$

Motion in a Straight Line

Solution:

$h = \frac{1}{2} at^2 , \nu = at$
max. height = H = $\frac{\nu^2}{2g}$
total distance from the ground = (H + h)
