A vertical-launch rescue flare is fired from the deck of a stationary ship. It rises vertically, reaches its maximum height, and falls back down, returning to its initial launch level exactly 4.6 s after firing. Air resistance is negligible.
What is the total distance travelled by the flare during this flight?
