What is a type of motor that burns fuel without air?

An example of a motor that burns fuel without air is a solid fuel rocket motor. These motors contain both fuel and oxidizer within the fuel itself, allowing combustion to occur without the need for external air.


What are individual pieces of propellant called?

Individual pieces of propellant are called "propellant grains." These grains can come in various shapes and sizes, depending on the specific design requirements of the rocket or motor. They are typically made from a mixture of fuel and oxidizer, which, when ignited, produce thrust to propel the vehicle. In solid rocket motors, these grains are often arranged to optimize burn rates and thrust profiles.


How is the Saturn V rocket put together?

—the Saturn v had two stages both parts would burn its engines until the fuel ran out then it would come off the rocket


How does a rocket stove work to efficiently burn biomass and provide sustainable heat for cooking and heating?

A rocket stove efficiently burns biomass by creating a strong draft of air that helps the fuel burn quickly and completely. This design allows for high temperatures and minimal smoke, making it a sustainable option for cooking and heating.


What factors are going to affect thte drag on your rocket?

If there is any. On Earth the rocket will become hot from air resistance and slow down, but in space, without air or friction, the rocket would keep moving the same direction forever or until it hits something or is affected by gravity.

What is burn time in solid rocket motor?

It depends on the motor. The Space Shuttle's 4-segment motor burns for 124 seconds, for instance. The Atlas V's solid rocket motors burn for 90 seconds. A common size B4 model rocket motor burns for 1 second. it depends on the size of the rocket, the grain material, and the oxidizer to tell you how long one will burn.


How does rocket fuel burn in space without oxygen?

The rocket carries its own supply of oxygen with which to burn the fuel.


Does a rocket motor burn fuel without air?

Yes, rocket motors can burn fuel without the presence of air because they carry their own oxidizer, which provides the oxygen needed for combustion. This allows them to operate in the vacuum of space where there is no air.


How long does the thrust last when a rocket is launched?

It depends on the motor. They are all rated in power and length of 'burn'


How does rocket fuel burn without air?

That's a very important question. To be very technical, the rocket motor burns without "air" ... outside the atmosphere ... because it takes its own oxygen along with it. There's always a chemical called an "oxidizer" somewhere in the rocket, either mixed into the fuel, or else in a separate tank.

How long does a model rocket motor last?

Provided they are kept in a dry, cool, and stable environment, they should last indefinitely. The ingredients are non-volatile, so they do not really degrade over time. If you want to know how long they burn for, you need to look at the rating on the side of the rocket. A higher thrust number means that it will burn for a shorter amount of time. Most small model rocket engines burn for 3 to 5 seconds.


What happens when you run a lawn mower without oil?

You will burn the motor up, which will be a very costly repair.


How do you wire 240V to 120V?

What specifically are you wiring? A light bulb would operate dim, a motor will burn up. The current increases thereby requiring larger wire and current protection.


How many minute does a balloon rocket goes?

The question is not well-formed. Similar questions may include: How many minutes does a helium balloon stay aloft? How long does a hot air balloon stay aloft? How long does a particular rocket motor burn?


Can you use sugar as the fuel in a hybrid rocket motor?

I don't believe that any hybrid rocket engines use sugar as a fuel; while sugar will burn, the specific impulse of sugar is pretty low. However, the Ansari X-Prize winning "SpaceShipOne" used a hybrid rocket fueled by recycled rubber tires, so I suppose anything is possible.
