Question 1208720: The window of a house is 6m above ground. A rocket is set off from the ground at an initial velocity of 20m/s.
For how many seconds will the rocket be at or above the window?
Use the equation
S(T)= -4.9T^2 + VoT + So to model the position S for a given time T, where Vo is the initial Velocity.

If you want to learn the subject to that level to solve such problems on your own
and to learn it from a good source, you have this lucky, happy and fortunate opportunity.

In this site, I prepared the lessons that cover the entire subject
    - Introductory lesson on a projectile thrown-shot-launched vertically up
    - Problem on a projectile moving vertically up and down
    - Problem on an arrow shot vertically upward
    - Problem on a ball thrown vertically up from the top of a tower
