13. ssm mmh A rocket of mass 4.50 x 105 kg is in flight. Its thrust is directed at an angle of 55.0° above the horizontal and has a magnitude of 7.50 x 106 N. Find the magnitude and direction of the rocket’s acceleration. Give the direction as an angle above the horizontal.

 

This time let’s get acceleration in x and y components and then add them using the Pythagorean theorem.
