Chapter 9, Problem 96P
A rocket is moving away from the solar system at a speed of 6.0 × 103 m/s. It fires its engine, which ejects exhaust with a speed of 3.0 × 103 m/s relative to the rocket. The mass of the rocket at this time is 4.0 × 104 kg, and its acceleration is 2.0 m/s2, (a) What is the thrust of the engine? (b) At what rate, in kilograms per second, is exhaust ejected during the firing?

A small space probe is released from a spaceship. The space probe has mass 20.0 kg and contains 90.0 kg of fuel. It starts from rest in deep space, from the origin of a coordinate system based on the spaceship, and burns fuel at the rate of 3.00 kg/s. The engine provides a constant thrust of 120.0 N. (a) Write an expression for the mass of the space probe as a function of time, between 0 and 30 seconds, assuming that the engine ignites fuel beginning at t = 0. (b) What is the velocity after 15.0 s? (c) What is the position of the space probe after 15.0 s, with initial position at the origin? (d) Write an expression for the position as a function of time, for t > 30.0 s.
A small rocket for gathering weather data has a mass of 30
kg and generates 1500 N of thrust. On a windy day, the wind
exerts a 20 N horizontal force on the rocket. If the rocket is
launched straight up, what is the shape of its trajectory, and
by how much has it been deflected sideways when it
reaches a height of 1.0 km? Because the rocket goes much
higher than this, assume there’s no significant mass loss
during the first 1.0 km of flight.
Recently, the Amazon and Virgin groups launched commercial space flights. These flights do not store fuel on board, instead, they inhale oxygen from the air. If the weight of one of these new rockets is 2420 kN, while a regular rocket is 19579 kN, what would be the acceleration of these two rockets close to the Earth's surface when a thrust of 25467 kN is applied?

When the boat is 500 m from the reef, the wind stops and the engineer manages to start the engines. The rudder is stuck, so the only option is to try to accelerate backwards. The mass of the ship and its cargo is 3.6 x 107 kg and the engines produce a net horizontal force of 8 x 104 N. The hull can withstand impacts at a speed of 0.2 m / s or less.
