i would suppose that it's because the incline is greatest then..but i suppose rocket means "something unmanned lol". the idea i have in my head says something along the lines of, the object has a path of of travel and when its moving it has a projected path of travel. so if the propellant was to be cut off when the rocket is traveling 100mph, it's not just going to stop..it has energy yet to be released. also i believe that things weigh more the faster they are going, according to Einsteins theory of relativity. but when things aren't moving they don't have a projected path of travel that is anywhere else other than where it is, then. so probably because motion must be established, and once it is, the forward motion of the object aids the propellant, if you will..or is less resistance for the propellant.

A balloon rocket is a balloon filled with air. Besides being simple toys, balloon rockets are a widely used teaching device to demonstrate physical principles and the functioning of a rocket.To launch a simple rocket, a person releases the opening of a balloon, which is then propelled somewhat randomly by the escape of the air which creates thrust. The flight altitude amounts to some meters. The balloon rocket can be used easilyto demonstrate simple physics, namely Newton's third law.A common variant of the balloon rocket consists in adding other components such as a string, a drinking straw and adhesive tape to the balloon itself. The string is threaded through the straw and is attached at both ends to objects of some kind, such as a doorknob on one end and a chair on the other. The straw is then taped to the side of the air-filled balloon, with the open end of the balloon touching one of the objects. When the balloon is released, the thrust from the opening propels it along the length of the string. Alternatively, a balloon rocket car can be built.The balloon can also be filled with gases other than air, with similar results
If you're talking about a solid rocket booster, or SRB, then it's the solid-fuel powered rocket motors attached outside the main vehicle, used to provide extra lift at take-off, and jettisoned after take-off when their fuel has expired. These are used on the sides of the Space Shuttle (they're the big, pointy things on the sides). That's the only thing I know of that fits your description, and I'm sorry if that's not what you mean.
I have this assignment as well, it don't take a rocket scientist to figure this out
Yes. Pretty much any collage program for engineering will require you to take higher level math and physics classes.
A rocket needs a large thrust on takeoff from Earth to overcome the force of gravity pulling it down. The large thrust is necessary to generate enough speed to reach escape velocity and break free from Earth's gravitational pull. Once the rocket is in space, it needs less thrust to maintain its course.
burning fuel (rocket propellant)
The amount of thrust needed to launch a rocket varies depending on the size, weight, and destination of the rocket. On average, rockets require anywhere from hundreds of thousands to millions of pounds of thrust to overcome Earth's gravity and achieve orbital velocity. For example, the Saturn V rocket used during the Apollo missions had a maximum thrust of 7.6 million pounds.
A rocket needs a powerful thrust to overcome Earth's gravity and lift off. This thrust is typically provided by rocket engines that burn fuel to create a force that propels the rocket upward. Additionally, the rocket needs a stable structure to withstand the forces of liftoff and the harsh conditions of space.
A rocket takes off by igniting its engines, which produce thrust that propels the rocket upward. The main forces involved in the rocket's takeoff are thrust and gravity. Thrust overcomes gravity, allowing the rocket to lift off the ground and travel into space.
Thrust Capacity is how much thrust it can take :D
If the thrust of the rocket at take-off is not enough to put the rocket in orbit around the Earth, it will not be able to overcome the gravitational pull of the Earth and achieve the necessary velocity to stay in orbit. The rocket would likely fall back to Earth due to gravity.
Any amount of thrust that's greater than the weight of the rocket vehicle will lift it off of the ground and accelerate it upward. If you keep it up long enough, the vehicle will be in space.
It would crash like NASA's Titan rocket did.
Thrust is the main force used in take off in a rocket. It is the force generated by the rocket engines which propels the rocket upwards. Gravity and aerodynamic forces also play a role in the take off phase.
A rocket ship takes off from the ground by igniting its engines to produce thrust. The thrust pushes the rocket upward, overcoming Earth's gravitational pull. As the rocket accelerates, it gains the speed needed to break free from the Earth's atmosphere and enter space.
A rocket ship takes off by igniting its rocket engines, which produce thrust that propels the ship upward. The force generated by the rocket engines pushes the ship off the ground and into the air, overcoming Earth's gravity. As the rocket ascends, its engines continue to provide thrust to propel it further into space.
