A rocket with a mass of 2.0 Ã 106 kg is designed to take off from the surface of the earth by burning fuel and ejecting it with

an exhaust speed of 3500 m/s. what is the minimum rate at which the fuel should be consumed in order to attain liftoff?

thrust force getting from the burning of mass should balance the weight of the rocket

here thrust force is given as

F_t = v\frac{dm}{dt}

now by force balance we can say

mg = v \frac{dm}{dt}

now plug in all values in this

(2 \times 10^6)(9.8) = 3500 \times \frac{dm}{dt}

\frac{dm}{dt} = \frac{19.6 \times 10^6}{3500}

\frac{dm}{dt} = 5600 kg/s

so rate of mass burning per second will be 5600 kg per second in order to lift up the rocket
