I have done the first part of this problem, but I cannot figureout the second part. I know there are several different answersalready posted on Chegg for this particular problem with differentacceleration and time, but I need this one specifically, with astep by step solution. Again...just PART B....the answer to Part Ais 201.72

A helicopter carrying Dr. Evil takes off with a constant upwardacceleration of 4.20 m/s2. Secret agent Austin Powers jumps on justas the helicopter lifts off the ground. After the two men strugglefor 8.20 s, Powers shuts off the engine and steps out of thehelicopter. Assume that the helicopter is in free fall after itsengine is shut off and ignore effects of air resistance. What isthe maximum height above ground reached by the helicopter?y=201.72

Powers deploys a jet pack strapped on his back 5.40 s afterleaving the helicopter, and then he has a constant downwardacceleration with magnitude 1.90 m/s2. How far is Powers above theground when the helicopter crashes into the ground?
