List of top Propulsion Questions on Thrust equation and specific impulse

An ideal rocket has characteristic exhaust velocity of 1200 m/s, mass flow rate of 75 kg/s, thrust coefficient of 1.5, and nozzle throat area of 0.025 \(\text{m}^2\). The chamber pressure in kPa and the specific impulse due to gravity in seconds are ________, respectively. Assume that the acceleration due to gravity is 9.8 \(\text{m/s}^2\).
