A model rocket reaches maximum velocity at the point where the thrust from the engine matches the drag from the air, or the point where the thrust goes to zero when the fuel burns out, whichever comes first.

∙ 14y agoThis depends on the trajectory. If the rocket's path is precisely vertical, then its velocity at maximum height is zero. Otherwise, though its velocity relative to the vertical axis is zero, there is some velocity on a horizontal plane, and this is not predictable based on the question.

What will a rocket do if it reaches escape velocity?
It will get out of Earth's gravitational pull and can no longer be forced back towards Earth.
What should be the initial velocity of a rocket if it to hit a target 1000 km away?
initial velocity would be ZERO before launch. To calculate the velocity you would need to hit that target at that distance you would need to know the mass of the rocket and the angle of launch or trajectory simplifying it
What is the definition of velocity lag?
In a flow of matter, such as in a rocket, velocity lag is the speed difference between the flowing gas particles and solid/liquid particles. Any amount of velocity lag slows down the overall force and speed of the matter flow.
While launching a rocket of mass 2 104 kg a force of 5 105 is applied for 20 seconds The velocity attained by the rocket at the end of 20 seconds?
The answer for that one is 500 m/s
What is takeoff velocity of rocket?
Exactly the same way it takes off from the earth. Gravity on the moon is so relativistically low that the propulsion required to reach an escape velocity is very very low compared to the earth.
When does a model rocket attain maximum height?
when the vertical component of its velocity is zero.
A rocket is launched upward with a velocity of 64 feet per second from the top of a 95-foot structure What is the maximum height attainrd by the rocket?
The rocket would attain a maximum height of 158.65 feet (63.65 feet from the top of the structure).
What will a rocket do if it reaches escape velocity?
It will get out of Earth's gravitational pull and can no longer be forced back towards Earth.
How does a rocket achieve maximum flight?
A rocket (firework) achieves maximum height once the fuel plus upward thrust runs out. Then gravity takes over and the rocket falls back to the ground.
How to know the maximum height of a rocket?
check your undies and then you'll know ;) PEEK A BOO
What is the function of a recovery system on a rocket?
The function of a recovery system on a rocket works somewhat like a parachute. It opens up when the rocket reaches a certain height to ensure that the landing will be safe.

What do you mean by effective jet velocity of a rocket?
Effective jet velocity of a rocket is the increased velocity of a rocket in a short span of time. It is achieved with the use of either solid or liquid propellants.Ê
What angle should you launch a bottle rocket at?
Well, for what? If it's height, then 90o. If you want maximum horizontal distance, then fire it at 45o.
