How Australia helped save apollo 13? Just kept the Bs going because rockets dont work in space!!!

Juggernaut 797 for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction, absolutely, this is true when it is applied correctly. When one mass interacts/comes into contact with another mass there will be an equal and opposite reaction. With rockets, the thrust moving in one direction cannot interact with the rocket as it is moving away from it, so the thrust can only interact with the ground/surrounding air. There is nothing in space for thrust to interact with. Newton's 3rd law of motion applies to masses that come into contact with each other, not masses moving away from each other. If you think i'm wrong, hold a hammer on top of a nail and quickly lift the hammer up, does the nail go in the opposite direction? Your understanding says it would!!!

Motokid600 we're typing about newton's 3rd law which is the only explanation provided by mainstream to describe how a rocket works. Nevertheless if you watch a space shuttle launch you will notice the fuel is ignited outside of the nozzle, not inside so combustion must take place outside the nozzle. This is because the nozzle is filled with fuel/liquid oxygen and air is not present. Liquid oxygen only intensifies the burn but the burn occurs in the presence of air. So not only can a mass not cause an equal and opposite reaction on a mass moving away from it but nothing can burn in the absence of air. You are fooled into thinking what you do because ALL space is just a dream.

Motokid600 the shuttles main engines can clearly be seen to ignite externally with the help of sparks that travel across the path of the escaping fuel because there is air present to enable the fuel to burn. This would also indicate that no combustion takes place within the combustion chamber. Again, mainstream's only explanation how a rocket works is with newtons third law but there can be No equal and opposite reaction on a mass that is moving away from another mass. Its all BS. If you think im wrong, place a hammer on top of a nail and quickly lift the hammer away from the nail, would you expect the nail to move in the opposite direction? Your understanding says that it would. Its all Bs!!!

the Space Shuttle main engine (SSME), is a liquid-fuel cryogenic rocket engine. With liquid and hybrid rockets, immediate ignition of the propellant(s) as they first enter the combustion chamber is essential. and yet there are clearly sparks present immediately external to the nozzle. So the truth is you light the fuels in the same manner you would your gas stove or blow torch! Again, mainstream's only explanation how a rocket works is with newtons third law but there can be No equal and opposite reaction on a mass that is moving away from another mass. Its all BS. If you think im wrong, place a hammer on top of a nail and quickly lift the hammer away from the nail, would you expect the nail to move in the opposite direction? Your understanding says that it would. It's all Bollocks!

how can you have unburnt hydrogen and where does the hydrogen come from? Duh! Oh yeah! Inside the rocket's fuel tank and the fuel is pumped into the rocket's thrust chamber and then out into the nozzle, where it is ignited! Your comments get more ridiculous by each post! Oh btw - the Earth is actually flat because if rockets did work according to your application of newt's 3rd law, then moving a hammer away from the point of contact of a nail's head which is held on top of a piece of wood, would drive the nail into the piece of wood. THink about it, to every action there is an equal and opposite reaction so, like the thrust moving in one direction alone causes an equal and opposite force on the rocket to move in opposite direction so then would the nail be forced into the block of wood by lifting up the hammer!

Motokid600 in your words, the act of moving the hammer away from the nail is the action, so what's the equal and opposite reaction?

The hammer is connected to the arm, so is only an extension of the arm. So in your words, the act of moving the hammer away from the nail is the action, so what's the equal and opposite reaction?

according to newt's 3rd law (to every action there is an equal and opposite reaction) and it's application to explain how rockets work, a mass moving AWAY from another mass should impart a force on the other mass it had contact with. That's how newt's law of motion is applied to rockets. However in my understanding newt's 3rd only applies to masses that come together eg the hammer hits the nali, the car hits the tree, your foot pushes on the ground, the rocket's exhaust column comes into contact with the surruonding masses eg air, ground. Remember AIR HAS MASS and so too has the exhaust so by virtue of newt's 3rd law an action/reaction MUST take place!

okay so let me get this straight with another example, if a car travels at speed (action) what is the reaction or reactions?
1
fucking hell! where is your head! Let me make this simpler for you to understand A car travels on a road in a forward direction at speed (action) what's the equal and opposite reaction or reactions?
1
are you not overlooking drag as a reaction to resist the car's forward motion? You included friction between the wheels and road surface but fail to take into account the air resistance. Do you not recognise air is a mass and even cars are designed aerodynamically to reduce drag or air resistance?
1
think about it, a car is a mass in motion and its motion is resisted by drag or air resistance yes? Well what about the column of hot gases expelled from the nozzle of a rocket. Is that not a mass in motion that also hits the air and other masses that it comes into contact with?
1
nope! you are missing the point, column of hot gases in high acceleration (action) what's the reaction?
1
would u agree that a car travelling at high speed along a road will come into contact with air resistance? yes or no?
