I'm having a bit of difficukty understanding (and even finding applicable formulas) The problem is as follows.. If a rocket (carrying a satellite) has a starting velocity 600 m/s, what difference in fuel loadout would that have for reaching LEO ? The ratio with that same rocket having a starting speed of 0.. (this is defintely beyond my in this case meager understandings of wind-resistance etc..) If neccesary, I'd use the Ariana (european rocket) as an example for this.. Thanx for ur help..
Are we assuming some other form(s) of acceleration to get it from 0 to 600 m/story? Such as magnetic acceleration?
Your question is very hard to follow. Difference compared to what? How could a rocket not start out at a speed of zero?
