OK, yet another strange awakening in a room with no windows. This time you drop a ball from a height of 1.29 m and it hits the floor 0.410 s after you drop it. This time you suspect you are on a rocket that has just left the surface of the Earth, and is still not too far above the ground. What do you deduce the rocket s acceleration to be?     25.2 m/s^2     15.4 m/s^2     11.0 m/s^2     5.5 m/s^2
