Homework Statement
A rocket moves upward, starting from rest with an acceleration of 29.0 m/s^2 for 8.00 s. It runs out of fuel at the end of the 8.00 s but does not stop. How high does it rise above the ground? (in meters)
Homework Equations
deltaX=(1/2)final velocity * change in time ?
The Attempt at a Solution
i really don't understand which of the equations of straight-line motion would be relevant, and how, for example: 29m/s^2 is DIFFERENT than just 29m/s
