What action-reaction forces are involved when a rocket engine fires?

not sure


A rocket achieves lift off due to?

Newton's Third Law of Motion: The mutual forces of action and reaction between two bodies are equal, opposite and collinear. This means that whenever a first body exerts a force F on a second body, the second body exerts a force −F on the first body. F and −F are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction. This law is sometimes referred to as the action-reaction law, with F called the "action" and −F the "reaction". The action and the reaction are simultaneous. What this means is that when the rocket pushes on the ground, the ground pushes back on the rocket with equal force. And if the rocket is causing enough force on the ground, the force the ground is causing against the rocket will cause lift.


Why dont action-reaction forces cancel out?

they do! for every action is an equal and opposite reaction. To propel a rocket into orbit an equal amount of force is expelled in the opposite direction. This is often dissipated into the atmosphere in the form of heat.


Does an action force make a rocket move?

It is not the action but the reaction force that makes a rocket lift up. The action force is the force released when the rocket fuel burns. This action force acts on the surface/ground and according to Newton's Third Law [For each and every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction], a reaction force acts towards the rocket hence giving it a lift.


What is the action reaction force of a rocket?

Rockets have an exhaust of hot gas, moving rapidly away from the rocket, which is the action, and the reaction is that the rocket is propelled forward.


Can you use newtons third law of motion to explain why the rocket moves upwards?

Third law: The mutual forces of action and reaction between two bodies are equal, opposite and collinear.the force coming out of the rocket creates thrust and thus pushes the rocket and the ground in opposite directions, the mass of the earth is so great that the rocket can not really move it, so instead the rocket shoots up away from the ground.


When a rocket rises what causes the action forces?

yall bummy 4 asken a dumb question check google nerds


A rocket is pushed forward as a reaction to?

The rocket is pushed forwards by the reaction to the force ejecting gas in the opposite direction to the direction of travel of the rocket. Rocket flight is an example of Newton's 3rd law of motion, which states that every action (force) has an equal and opposite reaction. In this case, the action is the ejection of rocket gas and the reaction is the forward force on the rocket.


Action-reaction engines that propel an object forward?

a rocket


How rocket engines work?

A rocket engine is a reaction engine as the fuel is burnt the thrust created pushes the rocket forward. Newton's 1st law in action; for every reaction there is a equal and opposite reaction.


How does firing gas from a rocket backward accelerate the rocket forward?

Well, according to Newton's third law of motion, for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction, so when the gas pushes against the ground, the ground "pushes" back, forcing the rocket upwards.


According To Newtons 3rd Law Of Motion For Every Action There Is An Equal And Opposite Reaction Then How Come Things Move If Theres Going To Be Something Moving Them Back With Equal Force?

To say that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction is slightly misleading you, as these forces are NOT on the same object. Better to say 'if A exerts a force on B, then B exerts an equal and opposite force on A'. When I stand on my bathroom scales, I exert a downward force on the scales, which deflect until they exert an equal and opposite force on me, thus preventing me from falling. Acceleration occurs to ME when forces on ME are unbalanced. e.g. if I stood on a rocket the upward force of the rocket on me is greater than the downward force of gravity, so I would accelerate upwards. These are NOT action-reaction forces. What are action-reaction forces are the force I exert on the rocket and the force the rocket exerts on me.
