Why do rockets go up?

Rockets go up because of Newton's Third Law of motion, which states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. Essentially, as the rocket pushes down on the rocket exhaust, the exhaust pushes back on the rocket with the same amount of force, in the opposite direction. This force is what lifts up the rocket.


What is the seat capacity of a Saturn v rocket?

The Saturn V itself has not seating capacity, it is simply a booster rocket that lifts payloads into space. It was used during the Apollo mission to lift the Apollo spacecraft into space. The Apollo spacecraft had a seating capacity of 3.


What are the principles of satellite launching?

To place a satellite at a height of 300 km, the launching velocity should atleast be about 8.5 km s-1 or 30600 kmph. If this high velocity is given to the rocket at the surface of the Earth, the rocket will be burnt due to air friction. Moreover, such high velocities cannot be developed by single rocket. Hence, multistage rockets are used. To be placed in an orbit, a satellite must be raised to the desired height and given the correct speed and direction by the launching rocket At lift off, the rocket, with a manned or unmanned satellite on top, is held down by clamps on the launching pad. Now the exhaust gases built−up an upward thrust which exceeds the rocket's weight. The clamps are then removed by remote control and the rocket accelerates upwards. To penetrate the dense lower part of the atmosphere, initially the rocket rises vertically and then tilted by a guidance system. The first stage rocket, which may burn for about 2 minutes producing a speed of 3 km s-1, lifts the vehicle to a height of about 60 km and then separates and falls back to the Earth. The vehicle now goes to its orbital height, say 160 km, where it moves horizontally for a moment. Then the second stage of the rocket fires and increases the speed that is necessary for a circular orbit. By firing small rockets with remote control system, the satellite is separated from the second stage and made to revolve in its orbit.


How does a Saturn V rocket work?

Saturn V lifts off, clears the tower, then when in space, it will separate the bottom, again and again, then the command and service module pop out the top. Form there, the Lunar module (aka: lunar lander) will be picked up from the commend module's top. from there, the service module will boost the space crafts to the moon, and will detach. the Lunar module will land softly on the moon with it's boosters. After being on the moon, the space craft will boost its self up. The lunar module pilot will attach them selves to the command module. Next, the astronauts will command the service module to boost them selves so far. Then they will separate; first, the Lunar module, then the service module, then they will reenter. At the last moment, the astronauts will release the parachutes, finally, they will splash down in the south Pacific. From there, a crane will pick them up and onto a concrete dock. The astronauts come out.

What are the things that decrease as a rocket lifts off the ground?

The first thing that decreases when the rocket takes off the ground is the hybrid fuel in the large tanks attached with it. As it takes off and approaches to the outer atmospheric line the tanks attached are detached and then the boosters come off from the rockets. Thus it decreases the number of accessory parts after the take off.


Can the smoke from a model rocket kill you?

Probably not, but I wouldn't recommend standing too close to the rocket as it lifts off. The fumes from the rocket's engine definitely aren't very good for your lungs.

How do action reaction pairs explain how a rocket lifts off?

Rocket emits particles backward with great force. This means that there is also a force in the other direction, which pushes the rocket forward. Also apparent from conservation of momentum.

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
