inertia and friction are the two forces that slow down a rocket
The same forces that had been trying to slow it down while it still had fuel, but were being overcome by the reaction force of the fuel burning in the engine of the rocket. Nothing has changed other than the loss of this reaction force, no new forces appeared.
It's mass and gravitational pull.
Air resistance (drag) and gravity are two forces that slow a rocket down. Air resistance pushes against the rocket due to its speed through the atmosphere, while gravity pulls the rocket back toward the Earth.
Air resistance (drag) is a major force that slows a rocket down during ascent. Additionally, gravity can also act as a downward force, counteracting the thrust generated by the rocket engines. These forces combined with any thrust reversals during engine shutdown can contribute to slowing down a rocket.
The parachute of a rocket is used to slow down the rocket when it falls down.
In outer space, there is no air resistance or drag to slow down the rocket, so less fuel is required to overcome these forces. Additionally, in the vacuum of space, the rocket does not have to fight against gravity as strongly as it does in Earth's atmosphere, leading to more efficient acceleration with less fuel.
The force that will slow the rocket down is typically drag, which is the resistance force that acts opposite to the rocket's direction of motion as it travels through the atmosphere. Drag is caused by air particles colliding with the rocket and creating friction, which reduces the rocket's speed.
There are usually about 3 compartments in a rocket and when one compartments fuel has run out, it breaks off and burns up into the atmosphere or lands in the ocean somewhere where no one is. Then the rocket begins to use up the next compartment.
The main forces that act against a rocket are air resistance (drag) and gravity. Air resistance causes drag as the rocket moves through the atmosphere, which can slow it down. Gravity pulls the rocket back towards the Earth, requiring the rocket's engines to generate enough thrust to overcome it and achieve liftoff.
To slow down a rocket, you can fire its engines in the opposite direction of its motion to decrease its speed. This process is known as retrofiring and it creates a thrust opposite to the direction of motion, slowing the rocket down. Alternatively, aerodynamic drag or parachutes can also be used to slow down a rocket during re-entry into Earth's atmosphere.
Nothing happens to the forces. The forces are what makes the thing speed up or slow down.
As the firework rocket ascends, gravity is continually acting on it, pulling it down towards the Earth. However, the rocket is propelled upwards by its internal fuel source, counteracting the force of gravity. Once the fuel is depleted and the rocket reaches its peak height, gravity will then slow it down and pull it back towards the ground.
