Does mass affect pressure?

yes


Does air pressure affect gravity?

Gravity is a function of mass and distance. So, no air pressure does not affect gravity.


What purpose does water serve in a water bottle rocket?

Water serves as the reaction mass in a water bottle rocket. When the water is pressurized and released, it creates the thrust that propels the rocket into the air. Additionally, the water helps to stabilize the rocket by shifting its center of mass downward as it is expelled.


What happens to pressure as you move outward from earths core?

Pressure decreases as you move outward from the Earth's core. The farther you are from the center, the less mass you will have pressing down on your location. Mass that is underneath you (or in other words, closer to the center) does not press on you, only mass that is above will add to the pressure where you are.


How does a center of gravity affect the balance?

yes ,when centre of gravity and center of mass is at a st.line the body is balanced.


How is the mass of the rocket change when it lits of?

The mass of the rocket does not change, no matter what it is doing. The mass of the fuel inside the rocket will decrease as it is used up.


Will adjusting the amount of water used affect the maximum time the rocket will remain in the air?

Yes, in a sense. In a water rocket, the water is reaction mass. That is the water expelled from the nozzle on the bottom pushes the rocket in the opposite direction. The more reaction mass expelled, the higher the rocket will go. From practical experience, however, you'll find that there is a tipping point. What I mean by this is that there will be a point when too much water will be too heavy, and the rocket will not be able to hold the pressure (water cannot be compressed, so some airspace is necessary), and will not gain much if any altitude.


Does density affect gravity when mass is constant?

If the distance remains constant between the center of mass in question and an alternate center of mass, the density of either mass will not affect the gravitational force between the two centers of mass.


What does the low pressure air mass do?

The Low Pressure Air Mass is the active feature of Our Atmosphere, air rises at it's center.The High Pressure Air Mass exists where-ever the Low does not: Air rising at the center of Lows descends at the centers of High Pressure Systems.The Low Pressure Air Mass acts as a Heat Pump that takes Heat North and Cold South.
