When the rocket reaches the position in its trajectory shown, it has a mass of 3 Mg and is beyond the effect of the earth’s atmosphere. Gravitational acceleration is 9.60 m/s2. Fuel is being consumed at the rate of 130 kg/s, and the exhaust velocity relative to the nozzle is 600 m/s. Compute the n- and t-components of acceleration of the rocket.
