When air pressure pushes water out of the bottle, (a) (thr...) is created.
(a) back down (b) after it reaches its (c)
This explains why the (d) stay in the (e)
(a) (Grav...) pulls the rocket back down to Earth after it reaches its highest point.
(a) moves through the air, (b)
A smooth rocket with (c) cone (d) and (e)
As the rocket moves through the air, (a) ( dr..) or air resistance slows it down.
The rocket (a) when (b) than gravity.
(c) at the moment (d)
The rocket moves (a) when (b) stronger than (c)
This occurs after the (d) energy and (e)
(a) a curved path (b)
The (c) how straight the (d)
The rocket follows a curved path called a (a) (traje...).
(a) into the bottle stores (b) inside the rocket.
(c) is waiting to be (d)
Pumping air into the bottle stores (a) (pote... ene...) inside the rocket.
When the (a) the rocket gains (b) (energy of motion).
It moves (c) more kinetic (d) produced.
The fins, nose cone and bottle shape (a) to (b) and energy use. (c) help the rocket (d) and straighter.
The fins, nose cone and bottle shape are (a) (engin...) to improve force, motion and energy use.
Better (a) (aerody....) help the rocket fly higher and straighter.
What force causes the water bottle rocket to launch upwards?
Thrust from escaping water
What type of energy is stored in the rocket before launch?
Potential energy (compressed air)
What force pulls the rocket back down to Earth?
What is propulsion?
Why do rockets need good aerodynamics?
To reduce drag so the rocket can fly higher
What happens when pressurised air pushes water out of the rocket?
The rocket is propelled forward due to the thrust generated by the expulsion of water.
What is the job of the fins on a waterbottle rocket?
To help keep the rocket stable and flying straight
Why is the rocket's nose cone sharp and pointed?
Which measurement tells us how fast the rocket moved?
Click and drag the labels to the correct parts of the rocket

(a) (For...)
The action of pushing the rocket forward using force.
(a) (Propu...)
The movement of an object.
(a) (Mot...)
The path the rocket follows through the air.
(a) (Traje...)
When the rocket takes off.
(a) (Lau...)
How fast the rocket is moving.
(a) (Velo...)
How much matter is in the rocket (its weight).
(a) (Ma...)
How well the rocket stays straight in the air.
(a) (Stabi...)
The small wings that keep the rocket flying straight.
(a) (Fi...)
The pointed tip of the rocket that helps reduce drag.
