An empty spacecraft weighs 250,000 N on earth and carries 700,000 N of propellant. The spacecraftlands on Mercury, where the acceleration due to gravity is 3.7 m/s2. If the craft used 2/3 of its fuelmass to get to Mercury, how much thrust (in Newtons) will be required to lift-off from the planetif the minimum thrust is equal to the spacecraft weight?
