Acceleration of Rocket Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Acceleration = Thrust/Mass of Rocket
a = F/m
This formula uses 3 Variables
Variables Used
Acceleration - (Measured in Meter per Square Second) - Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with respect to time.
Thrust - (Measured in Newton) - Thrust is the force produced by the expulsion of high-speed exhaust gases from a rocket engine.
Mass of Rocket - (Measured in Kilogram) - The Mass of Rocket is its stated mass at any given point in time while the rocket is in motion.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Thrust: 2 Newton --> 2 Newton No Conversion Required

Mass Flow Rate through Engine
Go Mass Flow Rate = Mach Number*Area*Total Pressure*sqrt(Specific Heat Ratio*Molar Mass/(Total Temperature*[R]))*(1+(Specific Heat Ratio-1)* Mach Number^2/2)^(-(Specific Heat Ratio+1)/(2*Specific Heat Ratio-2))
Exit Velocity given Molar Mass
Go Exit Velocity = sqrt(((2*Chamber Temperature*[R]*Specific Heat Ratio)/(Molar Mass)/(Specific Heat Ratio-1))*(1-(Exit Pressure/Chamber Pressure)^(1-1/Specific Heat Ratio)))
Compressible Area Ratio
Go Area Ratio = ((Specific Heat Ratio+1)/2)^(-(Specific Heat Ratio+1)/(2*Specific Heat Ratio-2))*((1+(Specific Heat Ratio-1)/2*Mach Number^2)^((Specific Heat Ratio+1)/(2*Specific Heat Ratio-2)))/Mach Number
Exit Velocity given Molar Specific Heat Capacity
Go Exit Velocity = sqrt(2*Total Temperature*Molar Specific Heat Capacity at Constant Pressure*(1-(Exit Pressure/Chamber Pressure)^(1-1/Specific Heat Ratio)))
Rocket Exit Pressure
Go Exit Pressure = Chamber Pressure*((1+(Specific Heat Ratio-1)/2*Mach Number^2)^-(Specific Heat Ratio/(Specific Heat Ratio-1)))
Exit Velocity given Mach Number and Exit Temperature
Go Exit Velocity = Mach Number*sqrt(Specific Heat Ratio*[R]/Molar Mass*Exit Temperature)
Rocket Exit Temperature
Go Exit Temperature = Chamber Temperature*(1+(Specific Heat Ratio-1)/2*Mach Number^2)^-1
Total Impulse
Go Total impulse = int(Thrust,x,Initial time,Final time)
Power required to produce Exhaust Jet Velocity given Mass of Rocket and Acceleration
Go Power Required = (Mass of Rocket*Acceleration*Effective Exhaust Velocity)/2
Power required to produce Exhaust Jet Velocity
Go Power Required = 1/2*Mass Flow Rate*Exit Velocity^2
Thrust given Exhaust Velocity and Mass Flow Rate
Go Thrust = Mass Flow Rate*Exit Velocity
Thrust given Mass and Acceleration of Rocket
Go Thrust = Mass of Rocket*Acceleration
Acceleration of Rocket
Go Acceleration = Thrust/Mass of Rocket
Photon Propulsion Thrust
Go Thrust = 1000*Power in Jet/[c]
