Answer:
The acceleration required by the rocket in order to have a zero speed on touchdown is 19.96m/s²
The rocket's motion for analysis sake is divided into two phases.
Phase 1: the free fall motion of the rocket from the height 2.59*102m to a height 86.9m
Phase 2: the motion of the rocket due to the acceleration of the rocket also from the height 86.9m to the point of touchdown y = 0m.
Explanation:
The initial velocity of the rocket is 0m/s when it started falling from rest under free fall. g = 9.8m/s² t1 is the time taken for phase 1 and t2 is the time taken for phase2.
The final velocity under free fall becomes the initial velocity for the accelerated motion of the rocket in phase 2 and the final velocity or speed in phase 2 is equal to zero.
The detailed step by step solution to the problems can be found in the attachment below.

Complete Question: A charge q1 = 2.2 uC is at a distance d= 1.63m from a second charge q2= -5.67 uC. (b) Find a point between the two charges on the horizontal line where the electric potential is zero. (Enter your answer as measured from q1.)
Answer:
d= 0.46 m
Explanation:
The electric potential is defined as the work needed, per unit charge, to bring a positive test charge from infinity to the point of interest.
For a point charge, the electric potential, at a distance r from it, according to Coulomb´s Law and the definition of potential, can be expressed as follows:
V =
We have two charges, q₁ and q₂, and we need to find a point between them, where the electric potential due to them, be zero.
If we call x to the distance from q₁, the distance from q₂, will be the distance between both charges, minus x.
So, we can find the value of x, adding the potentials due to q₁ and q₂, in such a way that both add to zero:
V = +
= 0
⇒:
Replacing by the values of q1, q2, and k, and solving for x, we get:
⇒ x = (2.22 μC* 1.63 m) / 7.89 μC = 0.46 m from q1.
