2.35 •• A tennis ball on Mars, where the acceleration due to grav- ity is 0.379g and air resistance is negligible, is hit directly upward and returns to the same level 8.5 s later. (a) How high above its origi- nal point did the ball go? (b) How fast was it moving just after it was hit? (c) Sketch graphs of the ball's vertical position, vertical velocity, and vertical acceleration as functions of time while it's in the Martian air.

. (II) The Lunar Module could make a safe landing if itsvertical velocity at impact is 3.0 m/s or less. Suppose thatyou want to determine the greatest height h at which thepilot could shut off the engine if the velocity of the landerrelative to the surface at that moment is (a) zero; (b) 2.0 m/sdownward; (c) 2.0 m/s upward. Use conservation of energyto determine h in each case. The acceleration due to gravityat the surface of the Moon is 1.62 m/s2.
