Answer:

832 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

The mass of the rocket given it's acceleration and force can be found by using the formula


mass = (f)/(a) \\

where

f is the force in N

a is the acceleration in m/s²

From the question

f = 54,080 N

a = 65 m/s²

We have


mass = (54080)/(65) = 832 \\

We have the final answer as

832 kg

hope this helps you
