At the top of the rocket's trajectory it is motionless for a brief time and the only force acting on it is that of gravity; the rocket motor has long since spent its energy.

How much mass should a rocket bottle has?

The mass of a rocket bottle depends on various factors such as the size of the bottle, the amount of water and air pressure used, and the desired altitude or distance that the rocket needs to achieve. Generally, a rocket bottle mass should be light enough to maximize its acceleration and height while still providing stability during launch.


How does Newtons third law act on a rocket bottle?

Gas/Pressurized liquid escapes the bottle's nuzzle, SOMETHING pushes the gas down, that something is ultimately the bottle itself. Newton's third law dictates that any force is applied on both bodies EQUALLY and in opposing directions. So if the bottle exerts force on the gas, the gas exerts the same force on the bottle, only on the opposite direction, which causes the bottle to accelerate upwards. In layman's terms, gas goes down, bottle goes up :)


What is Bottle rocket?

A bottle rocket is a type of firework that is propelled into the air by a combination of water and air pressure. It typically involves filling a plastic bottle with water and attaching a paper tube filled with gunpowder that is ignited, causing the bottle to shoot into the sky.


What is the length of a water bottle rocket?

The length of a water bottle rocket can vary depending on the size and design of the bottle used. On average, a typical water bottle rocket is around 2 feet (60 cm) in length.


Why should you use duct tape on a bottle rocket?

Duct tape can be used on a bottle rocket to secure components or prevent leaks in the rocket body. It is a strong and versatile adhesive that can help improve the overall performance and safety of the bottle rocket.

What is the best way to design a bottle rocket that will travel the highest altitude?

make it hold as much pressure as possible and experiment with the amount of fluid/air.


Why is it important not to have any leaks in a water bottle rocket?

If you have leaks in a water bottle rocket, the pressure will quickly escape along with the water and the rocket won't be able to reach as high an altitude as a rocket without leaks.


What is the highest point a rocket reaches during flight?

The highest point a rocket reaches during its flight is typically the apogee, which is the point of maximum altitude. This is the point where the rocket reaches its peak altitude before descending back to Earth.
