18. Convert 600Newtons to kgm/s2.
19. The rocket engine of a 40kg rocket apply a thrust force of 8000N to the rocket. What is the acceleration of the
rocket?
20. Refer back to question 19. Draw a diagram of the rocket. Label each of the following. Rocket mass, acceleration,
thrust force, action force, reaction force, rocket weight. ( Any force must be indicated using a labeled arrow to
show the size of the force and direction of the force.)
