What are two main types of rocket engines?

The two main types of rocket engines are Solid fuel rocket engines and Liquid fuel rocket engines.


What some types of rocket motors?

There are several types of rocket motors, including solid rocket motors, liquid rocket engines, and hybrid rocket engines. Solid rocket motors use a solid propellant that burns uniformly, providing thrust until the fuel is consumed. Liquid rocket engines utilize liquid fuel and oxidizer, allowing for adjustable thrust and the ability to shut down and restart. Hybrid rocket engines combine aspects of both, using a solid fuel and a liquid oxidizer, offering some advantages in performance and safety.


What are 2 types of rocket engines?

There are two basic types of rocket engines, solid fuel and liquid fuel. NASA mostly uses liquid fuel rockets, and model rockets are usually solid fuel. There are two types of solid fuels. Composite and black powder. Composite fuels are lighter and generally have higher thrust than the black powder motors. I hope this answers your question!


What is a removable solid rocket engine on a rocket?

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.


Who is Robert Goddard?

What are the three types of rocket fuels?

The three types of rocket fuels are liquid rocket fuel, solid rocket fuel, and hybrid rocket fuel. Liquid rocket fuel consists of liquid components that are combined and ignited to produce thrust. Solid rocket fuel is a mixture of solid components that burns to produce thrust. Hybrid rocket fuel combines elements of both liquid and solid rocket fuels.


Are the solid fuel rocket or the liquid fuel rocket faster?

liquid fuel


Is rocket fuel solid or liquid?

There are solid rocket fuels, and there are liquid rocket fuels.


Can a solid fuel rocket work without oxygen?

Yes. Solid rocket fuel contains its own oxidizer.


What would model rocket fuel be described as?

Modern model rocket fuel is a solid fuel.


What is the solid fuel rocket?

A solid fuel rocket is a type of rocket that uses solid propellant for propulsion. The propellant is a mixture of fuel and oxidizer that is preloaded into the rocket motor, allowing for a simpler design and increased reliability compared to liquid fuel rockets. Once ignited, the combustion of the solid fuel generates thrust, which propels the rocket forward. Solid fuel rockets are commonly used in military applications, space launch vehicles, and fireworks.


What fuel is in a model rocket engine?

Solid fuel


What fuel is put into rockets?

Solid rocket fuel.


What is rocket fuel?

Rocket fuel is either liquid or solid. Other kinds are being developed.


Where does a solid fuel rocket store it's fuel?

in the engine


Where is the solid fuel rocket on a rocket?

At the very bottom is the nozzle, after that is the fuel. Depending on how big the rocket is and how much fuel it needs determines the size of the chamber
