Let M0 be the total mass of a single stage rocket, MP be the total mass of propellant, ML be the mass
of payload carried by the rocket and MS be the mass of inert structural components. If
Isp is the
specific impulse of the propulsion system (in seconds) and g is the acceleration due to gravity, then the
maximum velocity that can be attained by the rocket vehicle in the absence of gravity and atmospheric
drag is given by
A
gIspln(M0/MP)
B
gIspln(M0/ML+MS-1)
C
gIspln(M0/MS)
D
gIspln(M0/M0-MP)

Correct : d
