- Homework Statement
- A toy rocket moving vertically upward passes by a 2.2 m -high window whose sill is 9.0 m above the ground. The rocket takes 0.17 s to travel the 2.2 m height of the window.
1. What was the launch speed of the rocket? Assume the propellant is burned very quickly at blastoff.
2. How high will the rocket go?
- Relevant Equations
- SUVAT equations.
I know that a=-9.8, I am having trouble aplying the motion equations.
For example, I can't use equations that have velocity (either initial or final), so I can rule out those equations. I am then left with no equations to use. I am extremely stumped.
