Question

NO NEED TO SHOW ANY WORK JUST FINAL ANSWER AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE!

I read the honor code and it says that a question can have up to 3 subparts (i.e. part a, b, c and d).

Question: What was the approximate acceleration, in m/s^2, during the burning of the rocket?

Sub questions:

a. At what time, in seconds, does the rocket reach its maximum height? 

b. What is the velocity of the rocket, in m/s, just as it reaches its maximum height?

c. What is the maximum altitude, in meters, reached by the rocket?

d. What is tf?

A small rocket is fired vertically from the surface of an atmosphere-free planet, with a velocity as a function of
time shown on the graph below.
