The pollution levels resulting from rockets varies. Some rockets use hydrogen and oxygen to reach orbit, meaning their exhaust is merely water vapor. Solid fuels produce more pollutants. Additionally, some rockets burn rocket-grade kerosine, hydrazine, and nitrogen tetroxide do not burn very clean. Some rockets burn nitrous oxide and high-grade rubber, which does not burn clean. While the exhaust does not burn clean, the infrequency of it's use results in a negligible environmental impact. Additionally, much of the exhaust is also released high enough to not enter the atmosphere.
What else can I help you with?
Why does burning fossil fuel pollute the air?
It produces carbon monoxide and other pollutants.
What generates thrust that helps a rocket take off?
burning fuel (rocket propellant)
When a rocket lands on a planet does it hurt the planet?
Yes the rocket does hurt the planet because, the rocket has chemicals in the fuel that are bad for the plant. The chemicals in that fuel makes smog and smog can pollute almost anywhere. Smog is the mixture of smoke, chemicals, and fog.
What launches due to equal but opposite forces of the burning fuel?
Lol , a rocket.
How does rocket causes air pollution?
Because they let out fume from the burning fuel.
How does a rocket provide power?
action & reaction. The burning of rocket fuel produces gases that move fast and make the rocket move the opposite way
How does a rocket function?
A rocket functions by burning an internal fuel source as a propellant. The thrust is then pushed through a nozzle to increase performance.
Is helium in rocket fuel?
Helium is not typically used as a fuel in rockets. It is most commonly used in rocket propulsion systems as a pressurizing agent in liquid fuel rockets to push the fuel into the combustion chamber for efficient burning.
How does the first and third law of motion apply to a rocket launching?
1st. The rocket sets still until a force, burning fuel, causes a change in motion. 2nd. F=ma The force of the burning fuel causes an acceleration of the rocket. 3rd. Action/reaction. The action of hot burning gases leaving the rocket causes a reaction, which is the motion of the rocket in the opposite direction. Note: The exhaust does not need to hit the ground to cause the reaction. A rocket engine ignited in outer space will cause a change in the motion of the rocket.
What force proples a rocket?
A rocket is propelled by the force generated through the controlled burning of rocket fuel. As the fuel burns, it is expelled out of the rocket's engine at high speed, creating thrust in the opposite direction that propels the rocket forward due to Newton's third law of motion.
Can kerosene pollute the earth?
it can on burning!
How does a rocket continue to accelerate after launch?
A rocket continues to accelerate after launch by continuously burning fuel in its engines, which generates thrust. As the rocket's mass decreases due to burning fuel, its acceleration increases per Newton's second law of motion, F=ma. This process allows the rocket to overcome Earth's gravitational pull and gain speed as it travels through the atmosphere and into space.
