Rocket Motors

A rocket motor (or rocket engine) propels a vehicle by burning a fuel and oxidizer to produce gases. The gases expand and are allowed to escape through a nozzle. The nozzle causes the gases to accelerate. In accordance with Newton's third law, this produces a thrust in the opposite direction.
