So you are supposed to view the first part of the problem, solving for displacement in terms of H (vertical distance), g, and t in terms of conservation of energy? I'm confused on how to derive that vertical displacement equation.

Hey there! I have the same problem and was able to get the first part of t_max=v_0/a, however I am really confused on how to even approach the second question:Assuming that the dragster has started at the last instant possible (so your front bumper almost hits the rear of the dragster at )...
