What are the forces that act on a rocket?

Thurst & Gravity & Air resistance


True or false An object will slow down and stop as long as no forces act upon it?

False. An object will go on forever if there were no forces to act upon it. In space, a rocket will go forever at the speed it projects. We only need the engines to steer an for lift off. On Earth, a toy car will go a short distance when pushed. Friction will go against it.


Do rockets require the same forces as an aircraft to take off?

No. A plane relies on the air against its wings helping it into the air, a rocket relies on the brute force of the rocket motor(s)


What is a V.2 bomb?

a rocket type bomb developed by Germany during WW2 and used against England and allied forces


What two forces slow rocket down when out of fuel?

inertia and friction are the two forces that slow down a rocket


How many forces acting are on a rocket?

There are four forces acting upon a rocket these are: Thrust, Gravity, Drag and Lift.


Explain the difference between balanced forces and actionreaction forces?

Balanced forces do not change because each side is pushing the other with the same amount of force. Action Force is a force that exerts a force on another object.Reaction force is equal, and opposite of the first force. In response to the force applied.Hope that helps


How many forces acting are on a water rocket?

There are two forces acting on a water rocket. The thrust which the force that is given to the water rocket to make it move, and the other one is the gravity.


When a model rocket is at rest it is being acted upon by balanced forces What are the two forces holding the rocket in place?

The model rocket rests on the center of gravity, which holds it in place. This makes sure the weight of the object is evenly distributed.Ê Another force that holds the rocket the center of pressure. All the aerodynamic forces of the rocket are centered.


What is for net force of 100 netwons pushes against a forces of friction of 80 newtons?

Since the forces act in opposite directions, just subtract them.


How can heavy objects such as airplanes and spacecrafts travel through the air?

There are four forces that act on an airplane:Thrustwhich works against dragLift which works against weight (the force of gravity)When an airplane's lift is higher than its weight, it can climb and take off. If an airplane's lift can not overcome its weight, it will fall from the sky or not take off at all.In the case of a spacecraft, if it is being launched with the aid of a rocket, the force of the rocket engines will propel the rocket into space. The propulsion force of the launching vehicle will have to be stronger than its weight in order for it to lift off. If the rocket engine(s) fail or are not generating enough force the rocket will fall or not lift off at all.


What Are Forces Involved in Launching A rocket?

Thrust, gravity and upthrust help launch a rocket.
