How much mass must be expelled

Reference no: EM13490190

A rocket of total mass 3180 KG is travelling in outer space with a velocity of 115 m/s. To alter its course by 35.0°, its rockets can be fired briefly in a direction perpendicular to its original motion. If the rocket gases are expelled at a speed of 1750 m/s, how much mass must be expelled?
