Fuel was consumed at a steady rate of 5 0 x 10-... - WAEC Physics 2005 Question
Fuel was consumed at a steady rate of 5.0 x 10-2kg per second in a rocket engine and ejected as a gas with a speed of 4 x 103ms-1. Determine the thrust on the rocket
A
20N
B
80N
C
200N
D
800N
correct option: c
F = ma = \(\frac{mv}{t} = \frac{5 \times 10^{-2} \times 4 \times 10^{3}}{1}\)
= 200N
= 200N
