2) Imagine that you are inside a spaceship. At t = 0 s, you are at the ground. Then you take off with a constant upward acceleration a, = 6.0 m/,2 going up. After 10 seconds you switch off the engine and jump out of the spaceship (please do not forget to pack your rocket belt before the trip). Since there is no other force beside the gravity (ignore the air resistance for ethe spaceship) the spaceship will be in free fall. A. How far in the sky the spaceship goes, before falling back on the earth? B. How long does it take from the spaceship to hit the ground? C. Let's say you listened to me and had a rocket belt with yourself and opened it 6.8 seconds after leaving the spaceship. What will be your height measured from the ground when the spaceship hit the ground? Suppose your constant acceleration is 2.8 m/,2 downward. s2
