WHAT'S IS RELATION BETWEEN WATER ROCKET AND PHYSICS ?
Introduction
Introduction
A water rocket is a simple model rocket powered by water and air pressure. When launched, it uses the force of water being pushed out by compressed air to propel itself into the air.
Basic Physics Principles
Basic Physics Principles
Water rockets demonstrate Newton’s Third Law of Motion: for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. The compressed air pushes the water out of the bottle nozzle, and this action pushes the rocket upward. The pressure inside the bottle creates the thrust needed for lift-off.

Components of a Water Rocket
A typical water rocket includes:
A plastic bottle as the rocket body.
Water acting as the propellant.
Compressed air inside the bottle.
A nozzle and launch system that controls the release.

When the launch mechanism releases the rocket, the compressed air forces water out through the nozzle at high speed. This rapid ejection of water pushes the rocket in the opposite direction—up into the air. As the water runs out, the thrust decreases until the rocket starts to fall back.

Factors Affecting Flight
Factors Affecting Flight
Several factors affect how high and far a water rocket can fly:
The amount of water vs the amount of air pressure inside.
The angle at which the rocket is launched.
The shape and weight of the rocket, including fins for stability.
How to Make Your Water Rocket Fly Higher
How to Make Your Water Rocket Fly Higher
To make your water rocket fly higher:
Fill the bottle with about one-third to half water. This balance creates enough mass for thrust without being too heavy.
Pump air to the highest safe pressure for strong thrust.
Launch at an angle between 45° and 60° for the best combination of height and distance.
Attach fins to help stabilize the rocket during flight.
Use a lightweight and aerodynamic design to reduce air resistance.
