A rocket of mass 20kg has 180kg fuel. The exhaust velocity of the fuel is 1.6km//s . Calculate the minimum rate of consumption of fuel so that the rocket may rise from the ground. Also, calculate the ultimate vertical speed gained by the rocket when the rate of consumption of fuel is (g=9.8m//s^2) (i) 2kg//s (ii) 20kg//s

The force on a rocket moving with a veloctiy 300 m/s is 210N. The rate of consumption of fuel of rocket is

In the previous problem , if the mass of fuel is 5000 kg and the rate of fuel consumption is 50 kg//s , find the speed acquired by the rocket when all fuel is consumed .

A rocket of mass 1000 kg exhausts gases at a rate of 4 kg /sec with a velocity 3000 m//s . The thrust developed on the rocket is

If the force on a rocket moving with a velocity of 300m/s is 345 N, then the rate of combustion of the fuel is

(a) A rocket set for vertical firing weighs 50kg and contains 450kg of fuel. It can have a maximum exhaust velocity of 2km//s . What should be its minimum rate of fuel consumption (i) to just lift off the launching pad? (ii) to give it an initial acceleration of 20m//s^2 ? (b) What will be the speed of the rocket when the rate of consumption of fuel is 10kg//s after whole of the fuel is consumed? (Take g=9.8m//s^2 )

Initial fuel of rocket = 1000kg if it was given acceleration = 20 m/s^2 then find rate of consumption of fuel if velocity of fuel w.r.t rocket = 500 m/s

In a rocket of mass 1000 kg fuel is consumed at a rate of 40 kg/s . The velocity of the gases ejected from the rocket is 5xx10^(4)m//s . The thrust on the rocket is

The mass of a rocket is 500 kg and the relative velocity of the gases ejecting from it is 250 m/s with respect to the rocket. The rate of burning of the fuel in order to give the rocket an initial acceleration 20 m//s^(2) in the vertically upward direction g = 10 m/s^(2) , will be -
