You must use a motor with 'retro fire' if you have a parachute. -At the apex of the flight, these motors fire a short burst into the rocket tube, and the expanding gases push the nose cone off so the parachute comes out and opens up.

What goes in a nose cone for a model rocket?
typically the nose cone is filled with a parachute to the rocket arrives on the ground safely.
When the rocket goes up why does it separate?
When model rockets get to the apogee of flight they separate or eject the nose cone to release the parachute that will let the rocket down without breaking it.When model rockets get to the apogee of flight they separate or eject the nose cone to release the parachute that will let the rocket down without breaking it.
What are the parachutes for on a rocket?
The parachute of a rocket is used to slow down the rocket when it falls down.
What does the recovery system do on a model rocket?
It basically allows you to reuse your rocket. Common recovery systems are a parachute or a streamer, both of which pop out of part of the rocket (the nose, usually) when it's in the air. The parachute (usually used with slightly larger rockets) or the streamer (generally found on smaller rockets) then catches the wind/air as the rocket comes down, allowing it to land without damage.
What is the best parachute for a model rocket to float to the ground slowly?
A big one, but that will also be blown in any transient winds, so you have to compromise.
What are the advantages of the parachute used in water rockets?
If you have a parachute, then it allows your water rocket to land safely.

What is the function of a parachute on a rocket?
Same as it is on a human, decelerate the descent speed such that the rocket can be used again.
How does the rocket land on the earth?
It doesn't, the shuttle with the crew in it glides back to earth, hence needing a long runway to come to a stop. If 'a' rocket was landing on earth... Crash or use a parachute to slow it down
What does the tube coupler do in a rocket?
THe coupler is where the parachute is located and also where it will eject out of the rocket while the rocket is in the air. Written By: Amir Rasuli
How is it possible to build a model rocket that goes 825 ft into the air for 40-45 seconds without the use of a paracute?
The parachute has nothing to do with it going 825 ft into the air for 45 seconds ! All the parachute does is let it DOWN gently.
