QUESTION

A rocket accelerates by burning its onboard fuel, so its mass decreases with time.

A rocket accelerates by burning its onboard fuel, so its mass decreases with time. Suppose the initial mass of the rocket at liftoff (including its fuel) is m, the fuel is consumed at rate r, and the exhaust gases are ejected with constant velocity ve (relative to the rocket). A model for the velocity of the rocket at time t is given by the following equation, where g is the acceleration due to gravity and is not too large. If g = 9.8 m/s2, m = 30,000 kg, r = 150 kg/s, and v = 3,300 m/s, find the height of the rocket one minute after liftoff.v(t)= -gt-v ln[(m-rt)/m]multiple choice answers:a) 31152 mb) 15576 mc) 46729 md) 7788 m
