#6) Your small rocket is launched from rest on the ground at t = 0.00s with a constant net acceleration of
20.0 m/s² as it flies through the air. At t= 2.00 seconds it runs out of fuel and the engine immediately shuts
off, now your toy just acts like an object moving in free fall (acting only under the acceleration of gravity)
for the rest of its motion.
(A) What is the velocity at t = 2.00s when the fuel runs out? Equations first numbers last (this means
