Textbook Question
Chapter 15, Problem 139P
The missile weighs 40 000 lb. The constant thrust provided by the turbojet engine is T = 15 000 lb. Additional thrust is provided by two rocket boosters B. The propellant in each booster is burned at a constant rate of 150 lb/s, with a relative exhaust velocity of 3000 ft/s. If the mass of the propellant lost by the turbojet engine can be neglected, determine the velocity of the missile after the 4-s burn time of the boosters. The initial velocity of the missile is 300 mi/h.

A launch vehicle has 6 engines operating in parallel which are fed from the same propellant tank.
Initially, each engine has an equivalent exhaust velocity of 3500 m/s and consumes 400 kilograms of
propellant per second.
One of the engines malfunctions and consequently operates at 50% thrust and 120% propellant
consumption. Calculate the equivalent exhaust velocity in m/s of all engines if treated as a single
engine, including the malfunctioning engine in your calculation.
The main propulsion system of a space shuttle consists of three identical rocket engines, each of which burns the hydrogen-oxygen propellant at the rate of 750 lb/s and ejects it with a relative velocity of 12,000 ft/s. Determine the total thrust provided by the three engines.
The feasibility of a one-passenger VTOL (vertical takeoff and landing) craft is under review. The preliminary design calls for a small
engine with a high power-to-weight ratio driving an air pump that draws in air through the 62° ducts with an inlet velocity v = 45 m/s at
a static gage pressure of -1.246 kPa across the inlet areas totaling 0.1355 m². The air is exhausted vertically down with a velocity u =
408 m/s. For a 82-kg passenger, calculate the maximum net mass m of the machine for which it can take off and hover. (See Table D/1
for air density.)

Integrating the equation of motion, as applied to all particles in a system, yields ∑mi(vi)1+∑∫t2t1Fidt=∑mi(vi)2 where mi is the ith particle's mass, vi is the ith particle's velocity, and Fi is the external force that acts on the ith particle. This relationship states that the sum of the initial linear momenta, at time t1, and the impulses of all the external forces acting between times t1 and t2 is equal to the sum of the linear momenta of the system, at time t2.
