9.Derive an expression for the effective exhaust velocity?

10.Explain the boost sustain trajectory of Rocket ?

11.Exalin the long cruise trajectory of rocket?

12.Explain the drag acting on the Missile?

13. rocket having an initial mass of 3500 kg is launched from the earth’s surface. If the exhaust
velocity of the jet from the rocket is 2 km/s,

1) The mass ratio necessary to boost the vehicle velocity by 3 km/s is ____

2) The propellant mass carried by the rocket in kg ____

14. A spacecraft’s engine ejects mass at a rate of 40 kg/s with an exhaust velocity of 2.8 km/s.

The initial mass of the spacecraft is 4000 kg, and the entire propellant gets consumed in a minute.
Determine the velocity increment of the spacecraft in km/s.

15. The specifications of a Deepavali rocket are as below: Propellant: Black powder Propellant
density: 1700 kg/m3 , Propellant mass fraction = 0.14, Final mass of the rocket = 18 grams, Jet
exhaust velocity = 80 m/s Initial acceleration of the rocket = 0.2g (g=9.81 m/s2 : acceleration due to
gravity) Dimensions of the propellant chamber: 5 mm diameter; 40 mm length

The velocity attained by the rocket in m/s at the end of the burning period of its propellant?

The burn rate (neglect the variations in burn rate) of propellant in g/sec ?

16. What is the difference between a liquid propellant rocket and a solid propellant rocket?

The differences between a liquid propellant rocket and a solid propellant rocket are

 The fuel of the Liquid propellant rockets is in the form of liquid at room temperature, such as
hydrazine, kerosene, and liquid hydrogen.

 The fuel of the Solid propellant rockets is in a solid state, such as ammonium perchlorate.

 Solid propellant rockets are often less expensive and easier to manufacture than liquid
propellant rockets, but they cannot be stopped once launched.
 Liquid propellant rockets are more difficult and expensive to produce than solid propellant
rockets, but they have the benefit of being able to be stopped once begun.

 This makes them more reliable and safer to use.
