What would happen if the thrust of the rocket at take-off was not enough to put the rocket in orbit around the earth?

If the thrust of the rocket at take-off is not enough to put the rocket in orbit around the Earth, it will not be able to overcome the gravitational pull of the Earth and achieve the necessary velocity to stay in orbit. The rocket would likely fall back to Earth due to gravity.


Does a rocket fall back if it runs out of oxygen?

No. A rocket does not need to fire its engines to stay in orbit. It does, however need fuel and oxygen to perform any maneuvers, so a rocket that runs out of oxygen will be stranded in space.


When does a rocket have balance force?

A rocket has balanced forces when the thrust from the engines pushing it forward is equal to the drag and gravity pulling it back. This balance allows the rocket to maintain a constant velocity or stay in a stable orbit.

How long does it take a rocket to orbit the moon?

It takes a rocket approximately 3 days to travel from Earth to the Moon and enter lunar orbit. Once in orbit, the time it takes for a rocket to complete one orbit around the Moon depends on its altitude and speed, but typically takes a few hours.
