A solid fuel rocket engine is just what it sounds like. The fuel inside the rocket is completely solid. In a liquid fuel rocket the fuel is a liquid.
Bottle Rockets that you can buy in many stores are fueled with Solid Fuel.
Most liquid fuel rockets contain 2 different types of fuel. Once that fuel is mixed and ignited you get your thrust.
Answer The Space Shuttle is a rocket. By definition, a Rocket is a vehicle that burns gas that it carries with it. Where as, a jet airplane burns the oxygen from the air and is not a rocket. The Rocket when it is launched has a liquid fuel rocket engines at the back end of it. It also has two long, solid fuel rocket engines that separate after launch. But the space shuttle is pulled by a rocket.
The two main types of rocket engines are Solid fuel rocket engines and Liquid fuel rocket engines.

There are several types of rocket motors, including solid rocket motors, liquid rocket engines, and hybrid rocket engines. Solid rocket motors use a solid propellant that burns uniformly, providing thrust until the fuel is consumed. Liquid rocket engines utilize liquid fuel and oxidizer, allowing for adjustable thrust and the ability to shut down and restart. Hybrid rocket engines combine aspects of both, using a solid fuel and a liquid oxidizer, offering some advantages in performance and safety.
Yes, ammonia has been used as a propellant in rocket engines. It is valued for its high energy content and can be used in both liquid-fueled and hybrid rocket engines. However, it is less common than other propellants like liquid hydrogen or kerosene.
Liquid hydrogen is a common fuel used in rocket engines.
A rocket experiences an unbalanced force when there is a difference between the thrust produced by the rocket engines and the resistive forces acting on the rocket, such as air resistance or gravity. This unbalanced force causes the rocket to accelerate in the direction of the net force.
Liquid rocket engines would act much like a car engine. More fuel, more thrust. Solid rocket engines are either on or off. No throttle control.
The space shuttle main engines (SSME) RS 24 engines use rocketdyne liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen fuel in the engine that is designed in such a way that the engines are reusable.
Liquid-powered rocket engines have several advantages. Liquid rocket engines have higher specific impulses (Meaning they produce a high amount of thrust for a small amount of fuel) which makes them more efficient. Liquid-powered engines can be throttled in real-time, and have a good control of mixture ratio. They can be shut down and restarted at any time. Liquid rocket engines can be tested before use to ensure that they will operate properly. Liquid engines, such as the Space Shuttle Main Engines (SSMEs), can also be re-used. Because of these safety and performance advantages, liquid engines are commonly used for manned spaceflight. Rocketry pioneer Wernher von Braun even went as far as saying that liquid-fueled engines were the only engines safe to use on manned spacecraft.
