A rocket launching into space is a classic example of Newton's Third Law. The other two apply, but it is because of Newton's Third law that a rocket can launch into space. When the rocket engines fire, large amounts of gas escapes from the nozzle at high speed. This requires signifigant force to launch these gasses. Since Newton's Third Law states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction, we know that the gas pushes back up on the rocket with just as much force as the rocket pushes down on the gas. This force launches the rocket into space.
It's also shows Newtons law number 1.
"An object at rest will remain at rest unless acted on by an unbalanced force. An object in motion continues in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force."
If you don't ignite the rocket motor (The unbalanced force), nothing happens.
The rocket pushes into the ground at -9.81 metres per second and the Earth Pushes up at +9.81 metres per second. When you ignite the rocket this stable force becomes unbalanced by the thrust produced by the rocket motor and if the motor thrust exceeds the mass of the rocket the rocket will rise.
And number 2...
"Acceleration is produced when a force acts on a mass. The greater the mass (of the object being accelerated) the greater the amount of force needed (to accelerate the object)."
Fuel, mass and thrust falls into this category. The heavier the rocket is the more thust you need the bigger or more efficient the engine needs to be and the more fuel you will need to provide the thrust.
And number three you already know about but for completeness.
"For every action there is an equal and opposite re-action."
The rocket ejects high speed gases down, therefore the rocket goes up.

Newton's Third Law. Equivalent to Conservation of Momentum. By Newton's Third Law, if the gas is pushed out of the rocket, the gas pushes the rocket back, in the opposite direction.
Newton's third law of motion allows a spaceship to accelerate by burning rocket fuel. As the fuel is burned and expelled as exhaust, the spaceship experiences an equal and opposite reaction force, propelling it forward. This process allows the spaceship to accelerate in the vacuum of space where there is no air resistance.
Currently any satellite must be launched on a rocket to reach space, though ideas for non-rocket launch exist.
A rocket launch demonstrates Newton's third law of motion when the rocket propels itself upward by expelling exhaust gases downward. As the rocket fires its engines, it pushes the exhaust gases downward with a force. Simultaneously, the gases pushing downward create an equal and opposite force that propels the rocket upward, following Newton's third law that every action has an equal and opposite reaction.
Rockets carry their own oxidizer to burn their fuel in space, as there is no oxygen available in space for combustion. The fuel and oxidizer react together in the rocket engine to produce thrust, allowing the rocket to move forward. This allows rockets to function in the vacuum of space where there is no atmospheric oxygen.
For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction (Newton's third law of motion)..

The achievement of lifting a rocket off the ground and into space can be explained by Newton's third law of motion, which states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. This law explains how the rocket engines generate thrust by expelling gases downward, causing the rocket to move upward.
Newton's Third Law. Equivalent to Conservation of Momentum. By Newton's Third Law, if the gas is pushed out of the rocket, the gas pushes the rocket back, in the opposite direction.
Forces acting on a rocket are unbalanced. The thrust from the rocket engines propels the rocket upward, overcoming the force of gravity pulling it down. This imbalance in forces allows the rocket to lift off and ascend 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!
a rocket powers the space station into orbit
The mass of the rocket decreases as fuel burns.
It has several engines for maneuvering, which are located on its sides and even on the front part. Short impulse from these engines allow a rocket to change its moving direction, you can check out Youtube videos with Space Shuttle maneuvering to see it yourself.
they lunches off with a rocket first then orbits a planet. Then shoots off on to the planet. after witch, the rocket blows apart back to earth.
Rockets follow Newton's third law of motion, which states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. When a rocket engine expels hot gases at high speeds, the force of the gases pushing downward is met with an equal and opposite reaction force that propels the rocket upward. This allows rockets to generate thrust and lift off into space.
