If things work as planned, the first stage uses up its fuel, and falls away, while the engines of the second stage ignite and push the rocket into a higher trajectory. This point in the launch sequence is called (predictably enough!) "staging", and it is at this point that things generally go terribly wrong if they are going to. You rarely hear of a rocket in which the second stage works properly and then the THIRD stage fails.
When the fuel of the second stage is exhausted, then it, too, falls away while the third stage pushes the rocket into its final orbit, or off into the solar system.
This "stages falling away" part is why the USA launches its rockets from Cape Canaveral in Florida; the discarded stages fall harmlessly into the Atlantic Ocean.
What else can I help you with?
What happens in the first stage of a multistage rocket?
It gives the initial boost to get the rocket off the ground, as the fuel burns up it empties the stage, so to get it into space the first stage ejected to lighten the load and the second stage ignites. and so on. This is an almost out dated system, but occasionally it is still used.
What happens to the third stage in a multistage rocket?
Because it's moving a smaller mass. The first stage of the rocket has to move the whole vehicle. By the time you're ready to fly on the third-stage engines, you've burned up the fuel in the first two stages and separated from them.
Which parts were jettisoned during the space flight of Saturn v?
During the Saturn V space flight, the first stage (S-IC), second stage (S-II), and third stage (S-IVB) were jettisoned after their respective fuel was expended and they were no longer needed. The S-IVB stage carried the Apollo spacecraft into Earth orbit before separating to continue on its trajectory to the Moon.
What are the four stages of the burning process?
The four stages of the burning process are ignition, combustion, flame propagation, and extinguishment. During ignition, the fuel is heated to its ignition temperature, leading to the start of combustion. Combustion is the chemical reaction between the fuel and oxygen, producing heat, light, and other products. Flame propagation is the spreading of the flames through the available fuel, while extinguishment occurs when the fire is deprived of fuel, oxygen, or heat.
In what type of engine is the air and fuel mixture ignited by the heat created during the compression stage?
The air and fuel mixture is ignited by the heat created during the compression stage in a compression ignition engine, also known as a diesel engine.
What happens when the first stage of the rocket runs out of fuel?
The first stage is jettisoned, to fall back to earth, as the fuel runs out.
What happens when the first stage of the multistage rocket runs out of fuel?
The first stage is jettisoned, to fall back to earth, as the fuel runs out.
What happens to the second when the first stage uses up its fuel?
If things work as planned, the first stage uses up its fuel, and falls away, while the engines of the second stage ignite and push the rocket into a higher trajectory.

What is a stage rocket?
That's a rocket with two stages- when the first stage (or section) runs out of fuel, it separates from the top half (second stage) and falls away, leaving that second stage to fire up, and drive the rocket higher.
What is a stage two rocket?
That's a rocket with two stages- when the first stage (or section) runs out of fuel, it separates from the top half (second stage) and falls away, leaving that second stage to fire up, and drive the rocket higher.
What happens to the second stage when the first stages uses up it's fuel?
If things work as planned, the first stage uses up its fuel, and falls away, while the engines of the second stage ignite and push the rocket into a higher trajectory.

Did the Long March 2F have gunpowder in it?
No, the fuels used were:boosters - hydrazine (fuel) and dinitrogen tetroxide (oxidizer)first stage - hydrazine (fuel) and dinitrogen tetroxide (oxidizer)second stage - hydrazine (fuel) and dinitrogen tetroxide (oxidizer)
What happened to to the second stage when the first stage uses up its fuel?

What are the names of rocket stages?
Rocket stages are typically referred to as first stage, second stage, and sometimes third stage, depending on the design of the rocket. The first stage is responsible for the initial launch and lift-off, while the second stage continues propulsion after the first stage has separated. Additional stages, like the third stage, may be used for orbital insertion or specific missions. Each stage has its own engines and fuel systems, enabling efficient use of resources during ascent.
What type of fuel did the Apollo eleven use?
Apollo 11 used a combination of liquid oxygen and hydrogen as fuel for its S-II second stage and S-IVB third stage rocket engines. The first stage of the Saturn V rocket used RP-1, a highly refined form of kerosene, along with liquid oxygen as fuel.
What is the first stage of the nuclear fuel cycle?
The first stage of the nuclear fuel cycle is mining and milling, where uranium ore is extracted from the ground and processed to produce yellowcake, a concentrated form of uranium oxide.
What happens in the first stage of a multistage rocket?
It gives the initial boost to get the rocket off the ground, as the fuel burns up it empties the stage, so to get it into space the first stage ejected to lighten the load and the second stage ignites. and so on. This is an almost out dated system, but occasionally it is still used.
