    Given: m = 2%
    v = 5 m/s

    Unknown:
    initial acceleration

    Equation:
    dm 2%mass
    v 
    dt 1s
    thrust force =
    M
    =
    100

    M
    F = (5m / s)
    Substitute: 100
    = (0.05 N )( N )

    𝐹 0.05𝑀
    𝑎= =
    𝑚 𝑀

    𝑎 = 0.05 𝑚⁄𝑠
    Simplified:

    Therefore, the initial acceleration of the rocket


    is 0.05 m/s.
