Problem

A rocket of mass 500 kg500\,\text{kg} is given an upward thrust of 6000 N6000\,\text{N}. Neglecting air resistance, the rocket’s acceleration is (a) +12.0 m s−2+12.0\,\text{m\,s}^{-2} (upward) (b) −2.2 m s−2-2.2\,\text{m\,s}^{-2} (downward) (c) +2.2 m s−2+2.2\,\text{m\,s}^{-2} (upward) (d) +2.0 m s−2+2.0\,\text{m\,s}^{-2} (upward)
