What force pulls downwards on a rocket as it is launched into space?
the weight of the rocket
Which force will slow the rocket down?
an elephant will slow a rocket down
When a rocket rises what is the reaction force?
A rocket in space operates off the expelled mass, from the conservation of momentum, dmv/dt = mdV/dt + Vdm/dt =0, The rocket is acceleration is mdV/dt = -Vdm/dt. The exhaust is Vdm/dt which is the force pushing the rocket forward as the exhaust goes out.
How do thrust drag and gravity affect a hydro-rocket?
Thrust - is the force pushing it forwards Drag - the force acting against the rocket Gravity - the force acting upon the rocket trying to push it towards the centre of the earth
What force does a rocket exert?
thrust
What force pulls downwards on a rocket as it is launched into space?
the weight of the rocket
Which force will slow the rocket down?
an elephant will slow a rocket down
Where do the rocket exerts force in pressure?
Rockets exert force at the upper part of the combustion chamber. This pushes the rocket forward.
How do action-reaction explain how a rocket lifts off?
As a rocket burns fuel, it expels exhaust gases. When the gases are forced out of the rocket, they exert an equal and opposite force on the rocket. A rocket can rise into the air because the gases it expels with a downward force exert an equal but opposite force on the rocket. As long as this upward pushing force, called thrust, is greater than the downward pull of gravity, there is a net force in the upward direction. As a result, the rocket accelerates upwards.-information from Prentice Hall, Science Explorer: Physical Science

What is the force that accelerates a rocket?
Thrust.
How does newton's 3rd law apply to a rocket on take off?
The force of the thrusters pushes the rocket upward, beating the force of gravity.
As the rocket is moving through the Earths atmosphere another force acts against the thrust from the shuttles engines. What is this force called?
Reaction force that is equal and opposite to thrust force from the rocket's engine.
How do action-reaction pairs explain how a rocket lifts off?
As a rocket burns fuel, it expels exhaust gases. When the gases are forced out of the rocket, they exert an equal and opposite force on the rocket.
