What is the difference between a long rocket fin and a short rocket fin?
A longer fin has increased aerodynamic drag. The geometric relationship between the drag caused by the fins and the center of gravity of the rocket determine the stability of the rocket in flight. Less aerodynamic drag means the rocket can go higher or farther, but it also means the rocket is less stable in flight. This tradeoff has to be considered in the design of the rocket.
What is a radical containing nitrogen and oxygen?
a radical is a free electron, therefore it cannot be nitrogen or oxygen, its just an electron
Could you explode in space?
Yes, you could explode in space by the pressure of the other planets.
Who were the first people to fly an aeroplane?
wright brothers
What formulas was in October Sky?
Homer used the formula s=1/2at^2 where s is the altitude, a is the gravitational acceleration constant or 32 and t is the time it took for the rocket to land on its descending point. They used 14 seconds--this datum was taken from AUK 12's records since AUK 13 and AUK 12's record are almost the same. and then they solve it to know the altitude. Once you know the altitude--you can now solve for the distance to locate the rocket's DESCENDING POINT... or simply where the rocket fall. Use trigonometry in solving it given that you have 90 degrees.
What is space command theory?
you get a rocket and fly into space
How do you fly into space?
by a rocket of course.
What do astronauts fly through space?
A rocket.
Where does the oxygen come from in a rocket?
Since there is no significant amount of oxygen in outer space, the rocket has to take all the oxygen it needs with it.
What was the first unmanned rocket ship put into space?
The first unmanned rocket to fly in space was the Russian Sputnik.
Why can a rocket fly into space?
it can fly because the fire that comes out of the back of the rocket is its thrust.So when the fire comes out the back it causes the rocket to thrust forward.Remember the fire comes out with a lot of force thats why the rocket is able to fly because of the thrust. The body of the rocket is a device that can stay in space and float in there which allows the rocket to stay in space. The fire thrusts the rocket up but only to get out of earths atmosphere because earth has gravity space doesn't. In space the rocket does the rest of the work which is floating in a place without gravity. hope this helped!
Can you use petrol as a fuel in rocket engine?
Rocket fuel contains oxygen, which is not found in space. A rocket in space could theoretically work in space if it were to carry its own oxygen, but other fuels such as hydrogen are more efficient.
How does rocket fuel burn in space without oxygen?
The rocket carries its own supply of oxygen with which to burn the fuel.
What year did the first rocket fly into space?
The first manned rocket was launched in 1961
Why does a rocket carry its own oxygen?
There is no air, and thus no oxygen, in outer space, so the rocket needs to bring its own oxygen to burn its fuel.
Does a rocket fall back if it runs out of oxygen?
No. A rocket does not need to fire its engines to stay in orbit. It does, however need fuel and oxygen to perform any maneuvers, so a rocket that runs out of oxygen will be stranded in space.
Why rocket fly in space instead of air?
I think I know what you're getting at... Rockets burn loads of fuel really quickly so we use jet engines in the atmosphere... The thing is that jet engines need oxygen to mix with fuel to burn it. Rocket engines contain their own oxygen which means that they are the most practical way for us to get into space.
