A small rocket with a booster blasts off and heads straight upward. When at a height of 6.0 km and velocity of 250.0 m/s, it releases its booster. (a) What are the position and velocity of the booster at the moment it is released? (b) How long will it take for the velocity of the booster to become zero? (C) How high above the ground is the booster at the moment its velocity becomes zero? Show all relevant working.

Suppose you toss a basketball upward while standing still with an initial velocity of 7 meters/second and it rises to about 2.45 meters. That's below the standard 3.05 meters (10 feet) for a basketball hoop, so you miss the shot. Which of these would get you the goal? Pick all that apply. Give the same 7 m/s from the same height, but early in a jump upward at 1 m/s. Run forward and shoot while running, but otherwise the same 7 m/s upward from the same height. Give the same 7 m/s, but at the top of a jump that takes you more than a meter off the ground. From standing still, give a velocity of 8 m/s.
