Calculations

Height at the top of trajectory:


The height given by the teacher was 80m. I believe that 80m is a more accurate measurement because 111.9 does not account for air resistance. The rocket did not fly directly straight up so the crooked path flight would effect the height of the apogee. I believe that the true height would be a lot less than 111 because of this. 80m is pretty far from 111 but it seems more reasonable, especially in comparison to other groups.
