Q. A Diwali rocket is ejecting $0.05 \, kg$ of gases per second at a velocity of $400 \, m \, s^{- 1}$ . The accelerating force on the rocket is

NTA AbhyasNTA Abhyas 2022

Solution:

Accelerating force on rocket due to ejecting gases
$F=u\left(\frac{d m}{d t}\right)$
$F=400\times 0.05$
$F=20 \, N$
