OLLAB) A new design of Saturn 14 rocket with mass 1.43 x106 kg has a propulsion engine that can eject g stant speed of 343.65 m/s (vGas) by burning fuel at a rate of 4.62 x10 5 kg/s (dmdT). In full tank, the rocket el of mass 47.74 x10 6 kg. is design exceeds the velocity of 11,200 m/s it can successfully escape Earth's gravity. Determine if this is naximum velocity (velyZ) in a PhysLab virtual simulation. (Pitch Angle = 0)

Question
(COLLAB) A new design of Saturn 14 rocket with mass 1.43 x10° kg has a propulsion engine that can eject gases at a
constant speed of 343.65 m/s (vGas) by burning fuel at a rate of 4.62 x10 5 kg/s (dmdT). In full tank, the rocket can carry
a fuel of mass 47.74 x10 6 kg.
If this design exceeds the velocity of 11,200 m/s it can successfully escape Earth's gravity. Determine if this is so. Find
its maximum velocity (velyZ) in a PhysLab virtual simulation. (Pitch Angle = 0)
