Question

State Newton's third law of motion. Explain, the motion of a rocket with the help of Newton's third law of motion.

Short Note

Solution

According to Newton's third law, for every action, there is always an equal and opposite reaction. Rocket works on the same principle. The exhaust gases produced as the result of the combustion of the fuel are forced out at one end of the rocket. As a reaction, the main rocket moves in the opposite direction.
