What fraction of the chemical energy released by the engine

Reference no: EM13528957

A certain solid-propellant model rocket engine releases a total of 6000 J of energy as it burns. If this engine carries a model rocket having a mass of 320 g to an altitude of 270 m, what fraction of the chemical energy released by the engine is wasted in the form of thermal energy in the air?
