A rocket is propelled by a gas which is initially at a temperature of $4000\, K$. The temperature of the gas falls to $1000\, K$ as it leaves the exhaust nozzle. The gas which will acquire the largest momentum while leaving the nozzle, is
Hydrogen
Helium
Nitrogen
Argon
A rocket is propelled by a gas which is initially at a temperature of $4000\, K$. The temperature of the gas falls to $1000\, K$ as it leaves the exhaust nozzle. The gas which will acquire the largest momentum while leaving the nozzle, is
Heavier gas will acquire largest momentum i.e. Argon.
