    Can i still get 95+ atar? I need estimates b*tches

    i'd say it's a little impolite, calling people 'bitches' then asking for an estimate. i'd say if you want 95 or higher, you'd need 90 or higher external marks.

    Answer this for me

    i think by net force they mean g-forces, which is calculated by (g + a)/(g) 'g' is 9.8 m.s^-2 based on the presumption that we are on earth. as for 'a', the rocket is 1955000 kilograms after thirty seconds. thrust divided by this figure gives us acceleration upwards (F=ma), so just plug the...
