Sand is being dropped on a conveyor belt at the rate of $2\,kg/s$. The force necessary to keep the belt moving with a constant speed of $3\,m/s$ will be ........... $N$.

$A$ machine gun is mounted on a $2000 \,kg$ car on a horizontal frictionless surface. At some instant,the gun fires bullets of mass $10 \,g$ with a velocity of $500 \,m/s$ with respect to the car. If the number of bullets fired per second is $10$,the acceleration of the car will be ..... $m/s^2$.

$A$ satellite in force-free space sweeps stationary interplanetary dust at a rate $\frac{dM}{dt} = \alpha v$,where $M$ is the mass,$v$ is the velocity of the satellite,and $\alpha$ is a constant. What is the deceleration of the satellite?

Sand is being poured at a rate of $50 \, kg/min$ into a train moving with a velocity of $20 \, m/s$. To maintain the constant velocity of the train,the force required is ........ $N$.

$A$ block of metal weighing $2 \, kg$ is resting on a frictionless plane. It is struck by a jet releasing water at a rate of $1 \, kg/s$ and at a speed of $5 \, m/s$. The initial acceleration of the block will be .......... $m/s^2$.

$A$ rocket can go vertically upwards in the Earth's atmosphere because
