Yes, it rehydrates you and contains electrolytes to keep you going. Water doesn't contain those extra electrolytes. However, when not playing sports, water is much healthier. Gatorade contains a lot of sugar so when not participating in sports, water is the healthier option.

Is Gatorade better then water?
Well you must state what you mean by "which works better." works better at what? well i think this is what you're talking about. Gatorade is better for a sport but water is much better for a sport or anything. You should just drink water, of course you can drink gatorade, its not that bad for you but don't drink it to much.
Whats better Gatorade or water?
It depends on the type of sport you're playing, and the weather conditions. On a very hot day where the heat index is at a dangerous level, and where you are sweating well above normal, Gatorade might be a decent choice. Sports involving padding/helmets and hot weather certainly warrant consideration of Gatorade. The idea of Gatorade hydrating you any better than water is a complete myth. Gatorade contains electrolytes, which water doesn't, to help aid your basic muscular functions in extreme conditions. But it isn't absorbed into your system any better or more quickly than water is. This is a very common misconception that has been drilled into our heads by Gatorade's marketing campaign. The amount of sugar in the drink is worrisome, however. I recommend cutting Gatorade in 2 with water. 90% of athletes should just stick to water. And drinking Gatorade while not playing a sport is completely unnecessary!
Could too much Gatorade cause a heart flutter?
Probably not. Be sure to consume other foods in addition to Gatorade. Gatorade is somewhat high in sodium. 8 ounces contains 5% of your daily sodium requirements, about as much as is found in a glass of milk.
How can you prove that Gatorade can increase your heart rate?
you can proved by doing an experiment and comparing Gatorade with water or any other liquid.

Why is water better than Gatorade and soda?
It is not, necessarily. If you are doing high intensity exercise then Gatorade is better for for you because it will give you carbs and electrolytes. If you drink it when you are not doing exercise, then it is bad for you because of its salt content. It will make you very unhealthy. The same goes for drinking too much ater after exercise because you could dilute your salt levels so much that you could die.
