A rocket that is in deep space and initially at rest relative to an inertial reference frame
Question:
A rocket that is in deep space and initially at rest relative to an inertial reference frame has a mass of 2.55 x 105 kg, of which 1.81 x 105 kg is fuel. The rocket engine is then fired for 250 s while fuel is consumed at the rate of 480 kg/s. The speed of the exhaust products relative to the rocket is 3.27 km/s.
(a) What is the rocket's thrust? After the 250 s firing, what are?
(b) The mass and
(c) The speed of the rocket?

I am still a student as i love to learn and explore. I have been teaching many students on one to one basis in person since last 3 years. I know where students face issues in solving problems and how I can make a topic more easier and understandable through daily life example.
I am pursuing masters degree in organic chemistry from ccs University. Being a student myself i know where students need most of the help and how complicated topics can be solved in the most simplest ways with a creative approach.
I had theatre arts as an extra curricular activity in college and this brought my creativity level into my academics and daily issues. Therefore I love doing things in a very different and creative manner.
Talking about science, imagination plays a very important role in understanding any topic. I always try to make students imagine the concept in all possible dimensions and enable them to solve the rest on their own.
