3750 seconds to travel that far
The answere is No pain, no gain
Answer:
102000 kg
Explanation:
Given:
A total Δν = 15 km/s
first stage mass = 1000 tonnes
specific impulse of liquid rocket = 300 s
Mass flow rate of liquid fuel = 1500 kg/s
specific impulse of solid fuel = 250 s
Mass flow of solid fuel = 200 kg/s
First stage burn time = 1 minute = 1 × 60 seconds = 60 seconds
Now,
Mass flow of liquid fuel in 1 minute = Mass flow rate × Burn time
or
Mass flow of liquid fuel in 1 minute = 1500 × 60 = 90000 kg
Also,
Mass flow of solid fuel in 1 minute = Mass flow rate × Burn time
or
Mass flow of solid fuel in 1 minute = 200 × 60 = 12000 kg
Therefore,
The total jettisoned mass flow of the fuel in first stage
= 90000 kg + 12000 kg
= 102000 kg
Aw don’t say that! I’m sure your beautiful:)
(3 m) / (2 mm/yr) = (3,000mm)/(2mm/yr) = 1,500 yrs.
