Find the maximum height ymax reached by the rocket

Reference no: EM13535736

A rocket, initially at rest on the ground, accelerates straight upward from rest with constant acceleration 53.9 meters per second squared. The acceleration period lasts for time 9.00s until the fuel is exhausted. After that, the rocket is in free fall. Find the maximum height ymax reached by the rocket. Ignore air resistance and assume a constant acceleration due to gravity equal to 9.80 meters per second squared. Answer in meters/
