Correct option is D)

Overall momentum of the system is conserved.

Therefore, change in momentum of the rocket will be equal to that of the fuel.

Change in momentum of the fuel will be

Δmv=60000

Hence, change in momentum of the rocket will also be:

△P=60000

Thrust force F=

△t

△p

​

F=60000 N
