A group of students launches a model rocket in the vertical direc-
tion. Based on tracking data, they determine that the altitude of
the rocket was 89.6 ft at the end of the powered portion of the
flight and that the rocket landed 16 s later. Knowing that the
descent parachute failed to deploy so that the rocket fell freely
to the ground after reaching its maximum altitude and assuming
that g = 32.2 ft/s, determine (a) the speed v, of the rocket at the
end of powered flight, (b) the maximum altitude reached by
the rocket.

- You are investigating an accident that occurred early on a foggy morning in Oxfordshire. A 2015 Prius Hatchback traveling due north collided in a highway intersection with a 2012 Nissan Pathfinder that was traveling due east. After the collision, the wreckage of the two vehicles was locked together and skidded across the level ground until it struck a tree. You measure that the tree is 11 m from the point of impact. The line from the point of impact to the tree is in a direction 39° north of east. From experience, you estimate that the coefficient of kinetic friction between the ground and the wreckage is 0.45. Shortly before the collision, a police officer with a laser speed gun measured the speed of the Prius to be 80 km/h and, according to a witness, the Prius driver made no attempt to slow down. Four people with a total mass of 230 kg were in the Nissan. The only person in the Prius was the 80 kg driver.
