Solution

The correct option is A

12000N


Step 1. Given Data,

Let F is the Thrust Force of the rocket.

Mass m=1000kg

Exhaust rate dmdt=4kgs-1

Velocity V=3000ms-1

Step 2. The thrust force developed on the rocket is,

We know that,

Thrust Force

F=V×dmdtF=3000ms-1×4NF=12000N

Therefore, the thrust force developed on the rocket is F=12000N.

Hence, the option A is correct.
