When fire needs oxygen to burn then how the fire in the rocket burns in space?

There are two ways to do that: -- The fuel that the rocket burns has its own oxygen combined with the other chemicals in the fuel. -- The rocket carries oxygen in a separate tank, and mixes it with the fuel in order for the fuel to burn.


Is blue tack solid liquid or gas?

solid liquid


What is model rocket fuel made of?

For liquid fuel systems it may be: "Liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen - used in the Space Shuttle main engines * Gasoline and liquid oxygen - used in Goddard's early rockets * Kerosene and liquid oxygen - used on the first stage of the large Saturn V boosters in the Apollo program * Alcohol and liquid oxygen - used in the German V2 rockets * Nitrogen tetroxide/monomethyl hydrazine - used in the Cassini engines".For solid fuel rocks, it may be a mixture of 72% nitrate, 24% carbon and 4% sulfur. See the link for more info. If you mean the stuff that is used in the giant fuel tank that is attached to a departing space shuttle, then it is almost entirely liquid O2 (liquid oxygen). However "rocket fuel" is defined as: Any of the substances or mixtures of substances that can burn rapidly with controlled combustion to produce large volumes of gas at high pressures and temperatures; includes monopropellants (hydrogen peroxide and hydrazine), liquid bipropellant fuels (organic fuel and oxidizer), and solid propellants (mixed oxidizer-fuel in a propellant grain).

What kind of fuel used to propel a rocket in to space?

Rockets are propelled into space using liquid or solid propellants. Liquid propellants typically consist of liquid oxygen or hydrogen as the oxidizer and a fuel such as liquid hydrogen or kerosene. Solid propellants are a mixture of fuel and oxidizer that are combined into a solid form.


What type of fuel is used in model rocketry?

There are two main types of fuel: solid fuel and liquid fuel. Rocket fuel most use both a fuel and an oxidizer. The solid fuel in most modern rockets uses aluminum powder as fuel, ammonium perchlorate as an oxidizer, and iron oxide as a catalyst. Liquid fuel uses liquid hydrogen as fuel and liquid oxygen as an oxidizer.


Can a solid fuel rocket work without oxygen?

Yes. Solid rocket fuel contains its own oxidizer.


Where do some rockets get their oxygen from?

Some rockets, such as liquid fuel rockets, carry liquid oxygen (LOX) as an oxidizer in a separate tank. The LOX is then mixed with the rocket's fuel and ignited to create thrust. Other rockets, like solid fuel rockets, have an oxidizer mixed into their solid fuel composition.


Is rocket fuel solid or liquid?

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


What are the two types of rocket fuel?

The two types of rocket fuel are liquid fuel and solid fuel. Liquid fuel rockets use a combination of liquid propellants, such as liquid oxygen and liquid hydrogen, that are mixed and burned to create thrust. Solid fuel rockets have a solid mixture of fuel and oxidizer that is ignited to produce thrust.


What are the ingredients in rocket fuel?

There are choice of solid liquid and gas fuel propellant. For space discovery rocket it is usually use liquefied hydrogen and oxygen as fuel. Missile and ICBM use solid propellant for long storage time. Choice is depend on the type and need.


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.


What makes a hybrid rocket engine a hybrid?

Hybrid rockets use a hybrid fuel-oxidizer system, usually a solid fuel with a liquid oxidizer. This allows simpler construction and higher reliability (like solid fuel rockets) but retains the ability to throttle the engine on demand or even turn it off and restart it (like liquid fuel rockets).


What source of energy is used by the rocket?

Depends on the rocket. Some rockets use solid fuel, some use liquid.


Where does a rocket keep oxygen to burn?

Only liquid fuelled rockets (and then only some) rely on oxygen as the oxidizer. It is carried in liquid form in a tank (or tanks). It is them pumped and mixed with the fuel in the combustion chamber where the combustion reaction takes place. The combusion products then exit the rocket nozzle. In solid fuel rockets, the oxidizer (whatever that may be) is usually mixed with the fuel.


What does a model rocket use to over come weight?

Thrust (due to solid or liquid fuel burning)
