CONSIDER A ROCKET WHICH IS MOVING AT A CONSTANT SPEED IN SPACE DUE TO BURNING OF FUEL WITHIN IT AND EJECTIN OUT THE BURNT GASES THROUGH A NOZZLE...........

FIRST OF ALL..............IS THIS POSSIBLE........THAT A NET FORCE IS ACTIN ON THE ROCKET WHEN IT IS HAVIN ZERO ACCELERATION??????   

IF YES, ACCELERATION SHOULD BE NON-ZERO

IF NO, HOW IS IT POSSIBLE THAT THE BURNT GASES ARE COMING OUT FROM THE BACK OF THE ROCKET WITHOUT EXERTING ANY FORCE ON IT ?

SO, I CONCLUDE THAT MAYBE THE STATEMENT ITSELF IS WRONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WHAT DO U GUYS HAV TO SAY ABOUT IT ???????
