A spaceship in space sweeps stationary interplanetary dust. As a result, its mass increases at a rate , where is its instantaneous velocity. The instantaneous acceleration of the satellite is:
Step 1: Given data
Mass,
Thrust force,
Step 2: Find the instantaneous acceleration of the satellite
There is no external force on the rocket, it is just the thrust force. So, it is given by
Hence, option B is correct.
