Rockets are accelerated using third law of Newton which states that every action has an equal and opposite reaction .
When the fuel from rocket burns it realises gases due to opposite force on the rocket it goes upwards.
We can also conserve momentum to get the exact value of acceleration using reduced mass technique

SubhasishBhaduri: But the answer in my book is conservation of mass
edistian: yes as i said in last linr we can used reduced mass techiwue also...wait i will explain it clearly

Explanation:

Newton's third law of motion states that to every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. The greater the exhaust velocity of the gases, the greater the acceleration. The faster the rocket burns its fuel, the greater its acceleration.
