$A$ rocket of mass $4000\, kg$ is set for vertical firing. How much gas must be ejected per second so that the rocket may have an initial upward acceleration of magnitude $19.6\, m/s^2$? [Exhaust speed of fuel $= 980\, m/s$.]

$A$ flat plate moves normally with a speed $v_1$ towards a horizontal jet of water of uniform area of cross-section. The jet discharges water at the rate of volume $V$ per second at a speed of $v_2$. The density of water is $\rho$. Assume that water splashes along the surface of the plate at right angles to the original motion. The magnitude of the force acting on the plate due to the jet of water is
