The rocket car has a mass M C (empty) and carries fuel of mass M F .
Question:
The rocket car has a mass MC (empty) and carries fuel of mass MF. If the fuel is consumed at a constant rate c and ejected from the car with a relative velocity vDR, determine the maximum speed attained by the car starting from rest. The drag resistance due to the atmosphere is FD = kv2 and the speed is measured in m/s.
