A `4200` kg rocket is traveling in outer space with a velocity of `150` m/s toward the sun. It wishes to alter its course by `30^(@),` and can do this by shooting its rockets briefly in a direction perpendicular to its original motion. If the rocket gases are expelled at a speed of `2700` m/s, what mass of gas must be explled ?
