Question

Ariane 5 is a European Space Agency rocket designed to launch geostationary satellites into orbit and to send payloads to low orbit. Ariane 5 launches from the Kourou space center in French Guiana. To overcome the Earth's gravitational attraction, very powerful engines are required to ensure takeoff.

 

The two side tanks are propellants that work with solid fuel, during takeoff they exert 6975 kN each on the Earth. The central tank, which is the engine of the "cryogenic" main stage, exerts 1074 kN on the Earth. If the mass of Ariane 5 at takeoff is 745 tons, what is the magnitude of the vertical acceleration of Ariane 5, in ?/?^2. Consider ?=9.8 ?/?^2
