(b) State the time taken when the model rocket attains the maximum height.
(c) Find the time interval during which the height of the model rocket is more than 18 m.
(d) Determine the time when the model rocket finally hits the ground. Give your answer
correct to two decimal places.

Answer:

(a) Maximum height = 23m
