A 2.2 kg model rocket is shot straight up in the air from the ground, with an initial velocity of 36.4 m/s. The rocket reaches its maximum height, and falls back to the ground. What is the maximum height of the rocket? Round your answer to 2 decimal places.

A 22 kg model rocket is shot straight up in the air from the ground with an initial velocity of 364 ms The rocket reaches its maximum height and falls back to t class=

Answer:

Explanation:

Ignoring friction, the initial kinetic energy will convert to maximum potential energy at its highest point.

PE = KE

mgh = ½mv²

    h = v²/2g

    h = 36.4²/ (2(9.81))

    h = 67.53109...

    h = 67.53 m
