A rocket is launched horizontally (x direction) at an initial velocity of 100 m/s and travels along a parabolic path given by y 2 = (100x) km. If the x component of acceleration is ax = (2t + 15) m/s2 , where t is in seconds, determine magnitude and direction of velocity and acceleration of the rocket when t=5 s.
