SpaceX plans to transport humans to Mars, but experienced a few rocket failures while on initial tests. So suppose the rocket to Mars (without people on board - another test flight) liftoffs from earth, from rest, with an acceleration of 52.5 m/s2. Unfortunately, after 7.80 s, the rocket experiences a failure and shuts off. It then continues to coast upward (with no appreciable air resistance). What is the maximum height the rocket reaches above the surface?

An insect called the froghopper (Philaenus spumarius) has been called the best juniper in the animal kingdom. This insect can accelerate at over 4.0 103 m/s2 during a displacement of 2.0 mm as it straightens its specially equipped jumping legs. (a) Assuming uniform acceleration, what is the insect's speed after it has accelerated through this short distance? (b) How long does it take to reach that speed? (c.) How high could the insect jump if air resistance could be ignored? Note that, the actual height obtained is about 0.70 m, so air resistance is important here.
