A new design of Saturn 19 rocket with mass 1.17 x106 kg has a propulsion engine that can eject gases at a constant speed of 307.37 m/s (vGas) by burning fuel at a rate of 3.58 x10 5 kg/s dmdT). In full tank, the rocket can carry a fuel of mass 44.08 x10 6 kg. f this design exceeds the velocity of 11,200 m/s it can can successfully escape Earth's gravity. Determine if this is so. Find its maximum velocity (velyZ). (Pitch Angle = 0)
