A rocket expels gas at the rate of 0.5kg/s.If the force produced by the rocket is 100N,what is the velocity with which the gas is expelled.

Question

MathMate · Accepted Answer

Force = rate of change of momentum Propelling force=100N m (of propelling agent)=0.5 kg / s velocity=v 100 N=0.5 kg/s *v => v=100/0.5 m/s =200 m/s
