During a test, a rocket travels upward at Va = 60 m/s and when it is Sa = 20 m from the ground its engine fails. Determine the maximum height Sb reached by the rocket and its speed just before it hits the ground. use 2 decimal places.
An object is thrown from a level field with initial upward speed 17 m/s and forward speed 9.9 m/s. How far (in m) from its launch point is its landing place? You do not need to put the unit in the answer, just the number. As usual, ignore air resistance, etc; use the acceleration due to gravity as 9.8 meters per second squared.

Imagine you are trapped inside a building. In order to get attention from the pedestrian passing by the building, you threw a stone toward a wall at speed 61.2 km/h and at angle 8, =55.0° above the horizontal as shown in Figure 2.1. The wall is distance d=10.0 m from the release point of the ball. i = 61.2 km/h Figure 2.1
