Find its maximum velocity

A new design of Saturn 19 rocket with mass 1.54 x106 kg has a propulsion engine that can eject gases at a constant speed of 393.55 m/s (vGas) by burning fuel at a rate of 4.5  x10 5  kg/s (dmdT). In full tank, the rocket can carry a fuel of mass 44.42  x10 6  kg.

If this design exceeds the velocity of 11,200 m/s it can can successfully escape Earth's gravity. Determine if this is so. Find its maximum velocity (velyZ). (Pitch Angle = 0)

(COLLAB) A new design of Saturn 19 rocket with mass 1.54 x106 kg has a propulsion engine that can
eject gases at a constant speed of 393.55 m/s (vGas) by burning fuel at a rate of 4.5 x10 5 kg/s (dmdT). In
full tank, the rocket can carry a fuel of mass 44.42 x10 6 kg.
If this design exceeds the velocity of 11,200 m/s it can can successfully escape Earth's gravity.
Determine if this is so. Find its maximum velocity (velyZ). (Pitch Angle = 0)
