The jet dragster. when empty has a mass of. 1.25 Mg and carries 250 kg of solid propellent fuel. Its engine is capable of burning the fuel at a constant rate of 50 kg/s, while ejecting it at 1500 m/s relative to the dragster. Determine the maximum speed attained by the dragster starting from rest. Assume air resistance is where v is the dragster's velocity in m/s. Neglect rolling resistance.
