Question
a rocket that has consumed all of its fuel continues to move upward slowed mostly by the force of gravity. If the rocket's mass is 75.0 g and it takes 1.2 sec for the rocket to stop, what is the change in the rocket's momentum?
what is the rockets stopping distance?
what is the rockets stopping distance?

Assuming the value of g is 9.8m/s^2
Force*time=momentum
mass*g*time=momentum
be certain to change mass to kg.
velocity= momentum/mass
distance= velocity^time- g/2 *time^2
