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

A

`2 xx 10^(3) N`

B

`5 xx 10^(4)` N

C

`2 xx 10^(6)N`

D

`2 xx 10^(9)N`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
`F =v (dm)/(dt) = 5 xx 10^(4) xx 40= 2 xx 10^(6)` N
