starting from rest, a rocket is launched upward (a=4.20 m/s^2). At t=6.85 sec, the motor shuts off the rocket continues to coast upward until it reached its highest point. At highest point, a chute was introduced so that the rocket will fall at a constant speed of 0.935 m/s until it reaches the ground. Determine the maximum height, h, in meters
