A rocket takes off vertically from the launchpad with no initial velocity but a constant upward acceleration of 2.25 m/s2.
 
  At 15.4 s after blastoff, the engines fail completely so the only force on the rocket from then on is the pull of gravity.
  (a) What is the maximum height the rocket will reach above the launchpad?
  (b) How fast is the rocket moving at the instant before it crashes onto the launchpad?
  (c) How long after engine failure does it take for the rocket to crash onto the launchpad?

  A) 4.52  105 N/C
  B) 2.26  105 N/C
  C) 9.04  105 N/C
  D) 0.226 N/C

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
