At ISRO's training center, engineering students are testing a small rocket-powered cart on a straight frictionless track. The cart represents how rockets accelerate in space.
Riya, a trainee engineer, is responsible for calculating how much force the rocket engine must produce to achieve a desired acceleration.
The rocket cart has a certain mass, and the engine must accelerate it fast enough to simulate real launch conditions.
She must use Newton’s Second Law to determine the required force.
