Work Step by Step

If the rocket is launched from 5m above the ground, the only that changes from the previous question is the value of $c_2,c_2=5$ Obtain $y=\frac{1}{2}gt^2+c_1t+5$ then $90=\frac{1}{2}\frac{-c_1^2}{g}-\frac{c_1^2}{g}+5\\ 90=-\frac{c_1^2}{2g}-\frac{c_1^2}{g}+5\\ 85=-\frac{c_1^2}{2g}\\ c_1=\sqrt 170g\approx40.82 m/s$ For time, we have $t=-\frac{c_1}{g}=\frac{-40.82}{-9.8}=4.17$s
