it works on newtons third law of motion

IFTHI: u mean every action has an equal and opposite reaction
Mmta1234: yes
tnwramit1: ya correctly I m take these lectures
Mmta1234: A rocket works by expelling gases from one end at a very high velocity. The escaping gases have a very high speed and this with their mass translates to a very large momentum. Due to the principle of conservation of momentum the body of the rocket is pushed forward. If both the momentum of the gases as well as that of the rocket are added the sum is zero.
