Think about putting something in a bottle and putting a cork in it. The idea is that you are putting your emotions into a bottle and not letting anyone see them, or not letting yourself feel something negative like anger or grief.

To bottle something means to put it into a bottle and close the cap on it, keeping it from escaping. It can also be slang for stopping something from occurring or moving, as in ships "bottled up" inside a harbor or emotions "bottled up" instead of being allowed to be experienced.

Does juice get messed up if you drink from its big bottle?

Well sort of, I mean it will put the bacteria from your mouth into the bottle, so I wouldn't suggest doing it, as it may spoil. Also if you have a cold or something who ever drinks that juice will then get sick as well. So it is probably best if you don't. Hope this helps.


How does Newtons third law act on a rocket bottle?

Gas/Pressurized liquid escapes the bottle's nuzzle, SOMETHING pushes the gas down, that something is ultimately the bottle itself. Newton's third law dictates that any force is applied on both bodies EQUALLY and in opposing directions. So if the bottle exerts force on the gas, the gas exerts the same force on the bottle, only on the opposite direction, which causes the bottle to accelerate upwards. In layman's terms, gas goes down, bottle goes up :)


What are capacity and volume?

Capacity is the space inside something (that is hollow). Volume is the space something occupies. The capacity of a bottle is the amount of space inside the bottle, whereas the volume of the bottle is the space that the bottle occupies. The difference between the two is the volume of the material from which the bottle is made.
