Rockets typically use a variety of propellants, which can be broadly categorized into liquid and solid types. Liquid rockets often use a combination of liquid fuel (like liquid hydrogen or RP-1) and an oxidizer (such as liquid oxygen). Solid rockets utilize a preloaded mixture of fuel and oxidizer in a solid form. The choice of propellant depends on the mission requirements and rocket design.
What else can I help you with?
Where is a rocket's fuel located?
A rocket's fuel is typically located in large tanks situated within the rocket's body. The fuel is stored separately from the rocket's engines and is used as propellant for thrust during launch and flight.
What was the name of the rocket used to launch Apollo 13?
The rocket to launch Apollo 13 was the Saturn 5 rocket.
How many gallons of fuel does a Saturn v rocket use during launch?
according to Boeing the Saturn V contained 5.6 million pounds of propellant (or 960,000 gallons).
What is soyuz rocket?
A Soviet carrier rocket used to launch spacecraft.
What is the white smoke during the shuttle launch?
The white smoke seen during a shuttle launch is caused by the ignition of the solid rocket boosters. It consists of exhaust gases and steam produced by the burning of solid propellant.

How much gasoline does a rocket ship use?
The amount of gasoline used by a rocket ship depends on the size and type of rocket. Rockets do not use gasoline as fuel; they typically use liquid hydrogen, liquid oxygen, or solid rocket propellant. The amount of propellant consumed by a rocket is based on factors such as the rocket's size, intended mission, and duration of flight.
What are two types of rocket propellant?
Two common types of rocket propellant are liquid propellant and solid propellant. Liquid propellant consists of fuel and oxidizer stored separately and combined in the combustion chamber, allowing for controlled thrust and engine shutoff. Solid propellant, on the other hand, consists of a mixture of fuel and oxidizer that is preloaded into the rocket, providing a simpler design but less control over the burn once ignited. Each type has its advantages and applications in different rocket systems.
What does Burn Time for a rocket mean?
The length of time from ignition of propellant to when all propellant has been consumed.
In what direction is the rocket launched during a rocket launch?
The rocket is launched upward into the sky during a rocket launch.
What has the author Ronald Toelle written?
