A 170 kg rocket is moving radiálly outward from the earth at an altitude of 190 km above the surface with a velocity of 3.6 km/sec. At this point, its final stage engine shuts off. 1) Ignoring any minor air resistance, what is the rocket's velocity 840 km above the surface of the earth?"; m/sec Submit 2) Again ignoring any minor air resistance, what is the rocket's velocity 840 km above the surface of the earth if its mass were 340 kg? m/sec Submit 3) What is the maximum height of the rocket above the earth's surface (using the initial rocket mass of 5 m Submit
