$A$ rocket of mass $5700 \,kg$ ejects mass at a constant rate of $15 \,kg/s$ with a constant speed of $12 \,km/s$. The acceleration of the rocket $1 \,minute$ after the blast is ........... $m/s^2$ $(g=10 \,m/s^2)$.

The initial mass of a rocket is $1000 \, \text{kg}$. Calculate at what rate the fuel (in $\text{kg s}^{-1}$) should be burnt so that the rocket is given an acceleration of $20 \, \text{m s}^{-2}$. The gases come out at a relative speed of $500 \, \text{m s}^{-1}$ with respect to the rocket. [Use $g = 10 \, \text{m s}^{-2}$]

In a rocket of mass $1000\, kg$,fuel is consumed at a rate of $40\, kg/s$. The velocity of the gases ejected from the rocket is $5 \times 10^4\, m/s$. The thrust on the rocket is:
