    started off with a bottle rocket project. This project lead us to become more educated with Newton’s laws of motion. The bottle rockets also lead you to learn about mass‚ force‚ and acceleration. As you know the first law of motion is that if objects at rest will stay at rest‚ or objects in motion will stay in motion‚ unless acted upon by an unbalanced force. Well in order for the rocket to lift off it will need force applied to it. It is required to add water for your rocket and you don’t want to add
