Two small liquid-propellant rocket motors are mounted at


Two small liquid-propellant rocket motors are mounted at the tips of a helicopter rotor to augment power under emergency conditions. The diameter of the helicopter rotor is 7m, and it rotates at 1 rev/s. The air enters at the tip speed of the rotor, and exhaust gases exit at 500 m/s with respect to the rocket motor. The intake area of each motor is 20cm^2, and the air density is 1.2 kg/m^3. Calculate the power provided by the rocket motors. Neglect the mass rate of flow of fuel.
