'Impossible' rocket drive works and could get to Moon in four hours

The force is zero, the acceleration is zero, and the velocity is zero.  Below is a snapshot of the results from an acceleration calculator.  I'm using the Planck time of 10^-43 for the time interval in our equation.  However, we can use any time interval and it doesn't change the result.  So, we plug in the calculator's result of 0 into our force equation and we have F = m x 0, F = 0.  Acceleration only applies to a moving object.  Acceleration doesn't apply to a stationary object.  Saying the acceleration is at the maximum is another inversion of the truth.  Saying the Force is at the maximum is another inversion of the truth.

From AC:

When the velocity is zero the acceleration is zero however the force which is the cause of an acceleration is maximum.

F=mA still applies.

You are correct because the correct statement is a Net or unbalanced Force is equal to Mass times Acceleration. So yes obviously the Force acting on the mass is the sole cause as to why the mass moves and when the velocity changes we call this an acceleration. If the mass is not moving then there is no acceleration, thus the statement F=mA is false and Net F=mA is true.

F=mA still applies.

Acceleration only applies to moving objects, thus F=mA only applies to moving objects.  However, if you want to apply F=mA to a stationary object (which is absurd), then fine by me.  It doesn't change what it is, and that is an acceleration of 0, a force of 0, and a velocity of 0.  It is what it is!

That is not always true.  Very often it is false.  Please avail yourself to a primer in differential calculus.

That is worse than wrong.
