A new design of Saturn 10 rocket with mass 1.85 x106 kg has a propulsion engine that can eject gases at a constant speed of 397.75 m/s (vGas) by burning fuel at a rate of 3.82 x10 5 kg/s (dmdT). In full tank, the rocket can carry a fuel of mass 46.94 x10 6 kg.If this design exceeds the velocity of 11,200 m/s it can successfully escape Earth's gravity. Determine if this is so. Find its maximum velocity (velyZ) in a PhysLab virtual simulation. (Pitch Angle = 0)

Question

A new design of Saturn 10 rocket with mass 1.85 x10⁶ kg has a propulsion engine that can eject gases at a constant speed of 397.75 m/s (vGas) by burning fuel at a rate of 3.82 x10 ⁵ kg/s (dmdT). In full tank, the rocket can carry a fuel of mass 46.94 x10 ⁶ kg.

If this design exceeds the velocity of 11,200 m/s it can successfully escape Earth's gravity. Determine if this is so. Find its maximum velocity (velyZ) in a PhysLab virtual simulation. (Pitch Angle = 0)
