The initial mass of a rocket is $1000 \, \text{kg}$. Calculate at what rate the fuel (in $\text{kg s}^{-1}$) should be burnt so that the rocket is given an acceleration of $20 \, \text{m s}^{-2}$. The gases come out at a relative speed of $500 \, \text{m s}^{-1}$ with respect to the rocket. [Use $g = 10 \, \text{m s}^{-2}$]

Can the flight of a rocket be considered projectile motion? Give reasons.

Is the formula $\vec{F} = m\vec{a}$ valid in all circumstances? Why?

$A$ balloon has a mass of $10\,g$ in air. The air escapes from the balloon at a uniform rate with a velocity of $4.5\,cm/s$. If the balloon shrinks completely in $5\,s$,then the average force acting on the balloon will be (in $dyne$).
