How does gravity effect a firework rocket?
The firework goes up a few metres in the air and it reacts to gravity after about 3- 7 seconds later and falls back down
What factors are going to affect thte drag on your rocket?
If there is any. On Earth the rocket will become hot from air resistance and slow down, but in space, without air or friction, the rocket would keep moving the same direction forever or until it hits something or is affected by gravity.
What has gravity got to so with a firework rocket coming down?
Fireworks have nowhere near enough fuel to send them into earth orbit. In fact, to do so would defeat the whole purpose of the piece, since it is built specifically to cause a lavish and colorful aerial display and to be seen by observers on the ground. So, once its fuel is spent, there is no longer any upward force on the piece to cancel the downward force of gravity, and its motion is no different from that of a stone released at the same altitude above ground.
How does gravity effect weight of an object?
As somebody previously said, gravity is directly proportional to weight. As gravity increases, weight increases. The simplest way to define gravity is the downward force that holds objects down. eg. you can sit in your computer chair due to gravity. It is holding you down. You would otherwise float as in space where there is no gravity. If that gravity force becomes greater, ie. there is more force pushing you down, you will weigh more. It pushes down on you more.
How does gravity affect bean seeds planted in four different directions and how will this affect farmers?
Gravity affects seed germination by altering the placement of plant hormones which affect the direction the first root grows and the direction the shoot grows. Gravity pulls some hormones downward which cause roots to grow down while the shortage of that hormone plus the presence of other hormones cause the shoot to grow upward. It doe not matter which way the seed is planted, this will not have an effect of the developing seedling.
How gravity affects firework rockets when it is its way up?
gravity pulls down a rocket

How does gravity affect a bottle rocket as it is ascending and descending?
As a rocket descends, gravity is pulling it down whilst drag is stopping the gravity having some of its power because without the drag the rocket would be pulled down to the ground within a matter of seconds. I don't know how it affects it on its ascent!! Sorry!!
What forces affect a rocket's flight?
gravity and air resistence. Gravity pulls the rocket down while air resistence pulls the rocket up
How is gravity and thrust both involved when launching a rocket?
Gravity plays the major role in the launch.. a rocket has to cross the escape velocity so as to get out of the atmosphere. Escape Velocity is the speed at which any space shuttel or rocket or anything has to achieve if it wants to escape the earth's gravitational field. Gravity attracts the rocket and all the things coming from the space and going in to the space from the earth towards itself.. that is the reason that whenever you jump, you come back to earth!!!
What is the direction of acceleration due to gravity for an upwardly launched rocket?
If it were accelerating due to gravity it would be vectoring down.
What outside force helps bring a rocket down to the surface of the Earth?
Gravity
Why can't you fly a model rocket into a cloud?
Gravity will pull it down before the rocket can reach the height where clouds form.
What affect does gravity have on a vehicle?
It holds it down.
How does gravity affect erosion?
water flows down hill because of gravity
How does gravity affect your blood?
