Why do you need a pointy base for a bottle rocket?

Right, just an illustration. Water is the propelllant that forces to bottle rocket upwards. Imagine a hosepipe. If you hold it in your hand the water trickles out slowly. If you put your finger over the end, a fast an strong spary comes out. This is the result of water pressure. Likewise, if the bottom of the bottle were the same diameter as the rest of the bottle, there would be little pressure, and the water would just fall out. The bottleneck of a bottle acts as a funnel, which increases the pressure and cause water to come out faster and last a little longer. This crests a concentrated upward force which propels the bottle upwards.


Are the forces on a see saw balanced?

Only if both ends are at the same height. If a resultant force is more on one side than on the other side, then that will cause the side with the higher resultant to accelerate downwards or upwards, depending on the direction of the resultant force. The forces would be unbalanced in that system.

What will happen when the force of gravity becomes greater than the other forces acting on a rocket?

It would obviously fall to the ground. However, if you have a rocket which can't overcome gravity, you've got a pretty bad rocket...


How does a nuclear bomb exploding behind a spacecraft help it go upwards?

the blast force would cause it to accelerate at Hugh speed thus the spacecraft goes upwards.


According To Newtons 3rd Law Of Motion For Every Action There Is An Equal And Opposite Reaction Then How Come Things Move If Theres Going To Be Something Moving Them Back With Equal Force?

To say that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction is slightly misleading you, as these forces are NOT on the same object. Better to say 'if A exerts a force on B, then B exerts an equal and opposite force on A'. When I stand on my bathroom scales, I exert a downward force on the scales, which deflect until they exert an equal and opposite force on me, thus preventing me from falling. Acceleration occurs to ME when forces on ME are unbalanced. e.g. if I stood on a rocket the upward force of the rocket on me is greater than the downward force of gravity, so I would accelerate upwards. These are NOT action-reaction forces. What are action-reaction forces are the force I exert on the rocket and the force the rocket exerts on me.


How would a new excise tax effect the supply curve?

It would probably cause the supply curve upwards and shift to the left.


What are 4 forces of a paper airplane?

i would assume just like general aviation it would be lift (upwards) weight or gravity (downwards) thrust (forward) and drag (backwards)


What forces would cause the highest boiling point?

These are ionic bonds.
