About 200 seconds after the Space Shuttle Solid Rocket Boosters (SRBs) break away from the NASA space shuttle parachutes are deployed at 15,000 feet and they land in the ocean. The SRBs usually land 140 miles off the coast of Florida where they float and are recovered by NASA. Once they are recovered they are refurbished and used on several other shuttle launches.
Space shuttle generally launches itself with just a boost from two solid rocket boosters(SRBs) that are dropped soon after start. The element that gives the appearance of big rocket is actually an external fuel tank.
It masses increases and the weight increases
The solid rocket boosters used by the space shuttle separate and fall away once they are burnt out, so there is no risk of them catching the shuttle on fire. Additionally, the boosters are designed to burn cleanly without producing excess flames or residue that could harm the shuttle.
At launch the Shuttle (orbiter) is attached to two rockets -- the long white tubes on the sides are called solid rocket boosters (SRBs). Also, the big orange tank the Shuttle sits on at launch is a full of liquid fuel. At launch the SRBs ignite/start and the shuttle's main engine begins burning the liquid fuel. These three engines push the shuttle up into orbit. If you are asking how a rocket engine works. If you put an object beside a bomb, when the bomb goes off it knocks/pushes the object away. If you put a firecracker under an empty tin can, the firecracker will knock the can up into the air (see link below). You can think of a rocket engine as creating many continuous explosions that push it.
The parachutes will drop from the rocket boosters and land about 140 miles off the coast of Florida in the Atlantic Ocean. Ships will later be sent to retrieve the boosters and carry them back to Cape Canaveral so that they may be reused.
Disappears.
Certainly not! The space shuttle was the first reuseable space craft. After its solid rocket boosters and belly tank fall away, they are collected from the sea.

Nothing happens, just wash it off rite away.

While a rocket is sitting on a launch pad, it is surrounded by a metal frame called a gantry. The gantry breaks away when the rocket is launched. If a missile is launched from underground, it emerges from a missile silo. A missile can also be launched from a portable missile launcher.
call a massive chunls of ice that breaks away from glaciers
the first rocket was made by the Chinese. Of course this the first rocket. They used it to scare their enemies away hope this helps. =]
