Concerned with the number of maintenance visits the rocket can undergo before being out of service, you have been informed that the recent statics show a that after the first journey to the outer space, the rocket was sent to service once, and after that the number of maintenance visits increase by 1 after every journey, for instance, after the second journey, the rocket had to go to service twice before being re-used, three-times after the 3rd use and so on. A. Generate a rule for the number of visits to the maintenance department with respect to space journeys, is this rule arithmetic or geometric. B. How many journeys will it take to for the number of service visits after a certain journey exceed 10? C. The rocket is not to be re-used again if the total number of maintenance visits exceed 50, then how many journeys will a single rocket serve before being out of service?

While testing the path of the rocket while ascending towards the space, it was found that the rocket rises 480 Kilo-meters in the first minute and then rises 99% of the distance travelled in the previous minute for subsequent minutes.
D. Generate a rule for the distance travelled in each minute, is this rule geometric or arithmetic?
E. Find the maximum possible height that the rocket can reach.
F. If the cargo was a satellite, then it must be placed in the geostationary orbit [it is the orbit above earth on which any placed object will remain fixed above a certain point on earth], which is 36’000 Kilo-meters above Earth’s surface. Determine the journey time required before switching the rocket engines off.
