Question

A rocket in deep space, away from external
gravity, has a mass of 2.90 x 10^5 kg
(including fuel). It burns fuel and ejects
exhaust at a rate of 200 kg/s at a speed 2400
m/s relative to the rocket.
a.) What is the rocket's initial acceleration?
b.) What is the speed of the rocket after 90
seconds if it starts at rest?
c.) What is the average thrust generated by
the rocket engine?
