Two rockets are launched at a fireworks display. Rocket A is launched with an initial velocity t, = 100 m/s and rocket B is launched t, s later with the same initial velocity. The two rockets are timed to explode simultaneously at a height of 300 m as A is falling and B is rising. Assuming a constant acceleration g 9.81 m/s", determine (a) the time t1, (b) the velocity of B relative to A at the time of the explosion.
