1. In the class notes, we have studied that an aircraft and or a rocket can achieve
the highest possible speed, when all of the heat energy of a typical fuel as
converted into the kinetic energy. Modify and compare these results under the
consideration of the second law of thermodynamics?

2. Plot and study the variation of overall efficiency by considering your results in
question 1? Assume and take appropriate typical values for the parameters as
necessary.
