A rocket of initial mass m ( including fuel) ejects mass at a constant rate of 25 kg/s with a speed 60 m/s relative to the rocket. If the acceleration of the rocket 3.5 minutes after the firing is `2m//s^(2)`. What is the initial mass of the rocket ? [Neglect gravity] Express your answer in unit of `10^(3) kg`
