What is the definition of a space shuttle?
the definition is a spacecraft launched like a rocket that can return to earth and land like a plane
The Space Shuttle takes off like a ............flies around the earth like a........... and lands like an?
the space shuttle takes off like a rocket flies around the earth like a bird and lands like an airoplane
How does a single stage rocket get off the earth?
I have heard of a single stage rocket ever being able to escape Earth's gravity.
How does a rocket take off from Earth?
A rocket can take off by the Newton Third law of motion
Why does a rocket need a large thrust on take off from the earth?
The rocket has to overcome the pull of gravity.
What is a reuseable vehicle that goes into orbit like a rocket and then glides back to earth like an airplane?
rocket
How does a rocket reenter the earth atmosphere?
The Earth's atmosphere is just gas, just like an airplane can get through clouds, a rocket can get through the Earth's atmosphere.
What would happen if the thrust of the rocket at take off was not enough to put the rocket in orbit around the earth?
It would crash like NASA's Titan rocket did.
What is the definition of a space shuttle?
the definition is a spacecraft launched like a rocket that can return to earth and land like a plane
Rocket A travels with speed 0.800c relative to the earth Rocket B passes rocket A with speed 0.500c relative to rocket A Determine the speed of rocket B relative to the earth Assume that the earth?
0.929c formula is: vbe =( vae +vba )/(1+( vae *vba )/c2 )
The Space Shuttle takes off like a ............flies around the earth like a........... and lands like an?
the space shuttle takes off like a rocket flies around the earth like a bird and lands like an airoplane
What is a reusable vehicel that goes into orbit like a rocket and then glides back to Earth like an airplane?
I would call that a Space Shuttle.
What stops a rocket from leaving the earth?
The Earth's Gravitational field
How does a single stage rocket get off the earth?
I have heard of a single stage rocket ever being able to escape Earth's gravity.
Which requires more fuel a rocket goin to the moon or a rocket comin from the moon?
Due to the higher gravity amount, a rocket will be pulled back when leaving earth, and pulled forward when going to earth.
Which requires less fuel launching a rocket from the earth or space?
Earth has gravity so less fuel is needed to move a rocket in space(assume that you mean escape from earth's gravitational field by"from earth")
How does Newton's third law explain how a rocket accelerates?
If a rocket pushes the burning gases towards the Earth, then - according to Newton's Third Law - those same gases push the rocket away from Earth.
