Something that can be compressed a little so the pressure can build up, and to be very hard to compress... so find something with those two qualities

Air and water pressure for a 1.5L bottle rocket?
1:2
How much water should you add as fuel for your water rocket?
If it is a commercially produced water/air rocket, follow the instructions exactly. They will tell you how much you need.If you made it yourself from a plastic bottle, you should perform a series of experiments to see how much water gives the best altitude.BTW, there is no fuel in these rockets. Water is the propellant that "pushes" on the rocket as it leaves the nozzle. Air pressure pushes the water out the nozzle.
How much air pressure does it take to launch a water rocket?
the best psi for launching a bottle rocket high is 65 psi because usually you want it to go high without a big chance of exploding in you face
How does air pressure effect the height of a bottle rocket?
THe ideal amount is 50% air pressure and 50% water. SHoot from 4-6 bar. I got mine to 92 meters
How do bottle rockets fly?
The 'operator' fills the bottle with water, then pumps air into it - creating pressure. When the stopper is released, the air pressure forces the water out of the narrow opening in the bottle's neck - creating a stream powerful enough to launch the rocket into the air.
What effect does pressure have on a bottle rocket?
it pushes the rocket into the air to make it go higher.
Why is it important to have an air gap in a water rocket?
Water is non-compressible. The air gap is what allows additional air to be pumped into the rocket.
What is a rocket toy name?
A popular rocket toy name is the "Stomp Rocket." It is a toy rocket launcher that uses air pressure to propel foam rockets into the air when stomped on.
What if there's no water in water rocket launching?
it will become an air powered rocket
How would you set air pressure to a model rocket?
Air pressure does not come into play with most model rockets.
A solid fuel designed for a rocket has air pocket inside what is the danger of this?
The rocket might explode from the added pressure when the combustion reaction hits the air.
What is the best way to design a bottle rocket that will travel the highest altitude?
make it hold as much pressure as possible and experiment with the amount of fluid/air.
