The task is to design a rocket which will accelerate a payload of mas 100 kg, from a velocity of 0 m/s to 6,000 m/s in intersteller space.
Constraints: The relative speed of the exhaust gas is 1500 m/s
The mass of rocket fuel must be 10 times the mass of the rocket itself at any stage.
B) If M1 and M2 represent the total mass of two stages, calculate the minimum total initial mass (M1+M2)
required to raise the speed of the payload to 6,000 m/s.
