2. A toy rocket launches from the ground (starting from rest) and rises straight up with an acceleration of 4.0 m/s. The rocket maintains this acceleration until it runs out of fuel at an altitude of 530 m. After running out of fuel, the acceleration of the rocket is the acceleration due to gravity, pointing straight downward. (a) What is the rocket's velocity when it runs out of fuel? (b) How long does it take the rocket to reach this point? (c) What is the maximum altitude reached by the rocket?
