A model rocket fired from the ground ascends with a constant upward acceleration. A small bolt is dropped from the rocket 1.0s after the firing and the fuel of the rocket is finished 4.0 s afrer the bolt is dropped. Air- time of the bolt is 2.0s. Acceleration of free fall is 10m/s^2. Which of the following statements is/are correct? a) acceleration of the rocket while ascending on its fuel is 8m/s^2 b) Fuel of the rocket was finished at a height 100m above the ground. c) maximum speed of the rocket during its upward flight is 40m/s d) Total air time of rocket is 15s

Question

A model rocket fired from the ground ascends with a constant upward acceleration. A small bolt is dropped from the rocket 1.0s after the firing and the fuel of the rocket is finished 4.0 s afrer the bolt is dropped. Air- time of the bolt is 2.0s. Acceleration of free fall is 10m/s^2. Which of the following statements is/are correct?

a) acceleration of the rocket while ascending on its fuel is 8m/s^2

b) Fuel of the rocket was finished at a height 100m above the ground.
