What is the velocity and speed as a function of time

Reference no: EM13983741

You observe a rocket propelled car driven off a cliff by Mr. Evel Knievel. You measure a horizontal acceleration of 9.8m/sec² and you remember from you physics class that the vertical acceleration has the same magnitude. Assuming that he started at the edge of the cliff from rest (and that the rocket is firing horizontally the whole time).

What are the horizontal and vertical position and the distance from the starting point of the rocket car as a function of time?

How long does it take to travel a distance of 5km from the starting point?

What is the velocity and speed as a function of time?

At what angle should the ramp be built at the bottom of the canyon so that down?
