Asounding rocket can generate a net upward force of 1,700 n of thrust during its 8 second burn. if the rocket has a mass of 200 kg at launch, what will be it’s average acceleration?

The average acceleration of the rocket, a = 8.5 m/s²

Explanation:

Given that,

The upward force of the rocket, F = 1700 N

The time duration of rocket exerted the force, t = 8 s

The mass of the rocket, m = 200 Kg

The force exerted by the rocket is equal to the product of its mass and acceleration.

Therefore, the formula for force

                              F = m x a

                               a = F / m

Substituting the given values in the above equation

                                a = 1700 N / 200 Kg

                                   = 8.5 m/s²

Hence, the acceleration of the rocket is, a = 8.5 m/s²
