QUESTION 6 (COLLAB) A new design of Saturn 13 rocket with mass 1.83 x106 kg has a propulsion engine that can eject gases at a constant speed of 287.15 m/s (vGas) by burning fuel at a rate of 2.62 x10 5 kg/s (dmdT). In full tank, the rocket can carry a fuel of mass 42.38 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) %3D

Jason takes off across level water on his jet-powered skis. The combined mass of Jason and his skis is 75 kg (the mass of the fuel is negligible). The skis produce a forward thrust of 200 N and have a coefficient of kinetic friction with water of 0.10. Unfortunately, the skis run out of fuel after only 90 s. What is Jason's top speed?
