Hello Friend,

Here, we will break the problem into two parts: In first part, we will consider the time when the rocket is accelerating. In the second part, we will see what happens when the engine is shut off.

♦ PART 1:
From beginning till the time engines are shut off.

→ Initially, rocket is at rest in ground.

So, Initial velocity = u = 0 m/s
Acceleration a = 25 m/s²
Time t = 5 s

Let final velocity = v
Let height achieved (distance travelled vertically) = h1

→ As motion is uniformly accelerated,

v = u + at
So, v = 0 + 25(5)
So, v = 125 m/s² upwards ---(1)

→ Also,

s = ut + ½ at²
So, here, h1 = 0 + ½ (25)(5)²
So, h1 = 625/2 m
So, h1 = 312.5 metres

♦ PART 2:
From the time engines are shut off till the time the rocket reaches maximum height.

→ Here, Initial Velocity = u = 125 m/s upwards (From (1))

Acceleration = g = 10 m/s² downwards

Let distance travelled vertically = h2

As here the speed will be decreasing, when the rocket reaches maximum height, velocity will be zero.

So, final velocity = v = 0

Here also, motion is uniformly accelerated. But here, g is in downward direction, while velocity is upwards. So, we need to take g as negative in calculations.

Here,

v² = u² + 2as
So, 0² = 125² + 2(-g)(h2)
So, 0 = 125² -(2)(10)(h2)
So, 20 h2 = 125²
So, h2 = (125×125)/20 m
So, h2 = (25×125)/4 m
So, h2 = 3125/4 m
So, h2 = 781.25 metres

♦ Final Answer:

In part 1, the rocket reached a height h1 starting from ground. In part 2, the rocket reached h2 height.

So, total maximum height (H) achieved is the sum of h1 and h2.

So, H = h1 + h2
So, H = 312.5 + 781.25 m
So, H = 1093.75 m
So, H ≈ 1100 metres

→ Thus, the rocket reaches a maximum height of approximately 1100 metres.

Hope it helps.
