(COLLAB) A new design of Saturn 16 rocket with mass 1.13 x106 kg has a propulsion engine that can eject gases at a constant speed of 331.91 m/s (vGas) by burning fuel at a rate of 2.77 x10 5 kg/s (dmdT). In full tank, the rocket can carry a fuel of mass 40.73 x10 6 kg. If 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)
