A wide nozzle
It doesn't matter
The force supplied by the rocket engine must be strong enough to overcome...
Gravity
Weight
Thrust
The nose cone of the rocket is shaped to...
Increase thrust
Decrease drag
Increase drag
When the rocket engine is falling back down towards earth it is in...
Air resistance
Free fall
Velocity
Why is it important to have fins on your rocket?
They stabilize the rocket
The reduce drag
They evenly distributes the weight
As a rocket gets further away from Earth...
the force of gravity gets stronger.
the force of gravity gets weaker.
In water rockets wind would provide this force.
