Chapter 1, Question 2:
Rock(-Breathing) Propulsion
Chapter 1, Question 2 Answer:
The correct answer is 1) F=Rmr(uout-uin).
The force is equal to the time rate of change of momentum. The impulse is
provided by the difference between a mass flow rate of rocks (Rmr) which
are taken in with a velocity with respect to the boat of uin, and a mass flow
rate of rocks (Rmr) which are ejected with a velocity with respect to the
boat of uout.
