A rocket motor consumes 100 kg of fuel per second, exhausting it with a speed of `5xx10^(3)ms^(-1)`. (i) What force is exerted on the rocket ? (ii) What will be the velocity of the rocket at the instant its mass is reduced `(1//20)`th of its initial mass, its initial velocity being zero. Neglect gravity.
