A rocket is ejecting a mass m of gases per unit time with velocity V relative to the rocket, the thrust on the rocket is:

A

mV

B

`(mV)/(g^(2))`

C

mVg

D

`(mV^(2))/(g)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
a

Thrust,`F=V(dm)/(dt)=Vm.as(dm)/(dt)=m(give)`
Hence correct choice is (a).
