A short-range ballistic rocket is launched at an angle of 60 degrees with the following initial parameters: g0: 9.81 m/s² (Acceleration due to gravity, constant) m0: 500 kg (Initial mass) mp: 100 kg (Propellant mass) Is: 250 s (Specific impulse) tp: 5.0 s (Burn time) Calculate the norm value of the acceleration vector of the rocket immediately after engine cut-off. Note: Neglect air resistance and assume constant thrust throughout the burn phase.
