Scientists at SpaceX are testing a rocket engine before launch from their facility.
When the rocket pushes exhaust gases downward, the gases push the rocket upward with equal and opposite force. This is Newton’s Third Law.
Engineer Neha must calculate the rocket’s acceleration when the engine produces thrust.
This helps ensure the rocket can overcome Earth’s gravity and launch safely.
A rocket of mass m kg produces an upward thrust force F Newtons.
