10 hours ago | comment | added | Ján Lalinský | Why would you maintain, in variable mass system, the wrong concept of net force $\mathbf F$ obeying $\mathbf F = d\mathbf p/dt$, which is frame-dependent, and then introduce some other concept of force $\mathbf F_0$ that subtracts the frame-dependent part? The rocket equation can be derived with actual frame-independent physical force $\mathbf F_0$. $\mathbf F$ is just superfluous and misleading. | |

Fixing up the wording and math to correct for typo's.
