$A$ Diwali rocket of mass $100\,g$ lifts up with an acceleration of $5\,m/s^2$. If gases eject out of the rocket at a rate of $10\,g/s$,then find the velocity of ejection of gas with respect to the rocket in $m/s$.

$A$ rocket accelerates straight up by ejecting gas downwards. In a small time interval $\Delta t$,it ejects a gas of mass $\Delta m$ at a relative speed $u$. Calculate the kinetic energy $(KE)$ of the entire system at time $t + \Delta t$ and $t$,and show that the device that ejects gas does work equal to $(\frac{1}{2}) \Delta m u^2$ in this time interval (ignoring gravity).
