Be able to pass a NASA Class I Space physical or an equivalent exam. Create new mathematical theories and techniques involving the latest technology and solve economic, scientific, engineering, and business problems using mathematical knowledge and computational tools. They design and perform experiments with lasers, cyclotrons, telescopes, mass spectrometers, and other equipment. They attempt to discover laws that describe the forces of nature, such as gravity, electromagnetism, and nuclear interactions. They also find ways to apply physical laws and theories to problems in nuclear energy, electronics, optics, materials, communications, aerospace technology, navigation equipment, and medical instrumentation.
Force is equal to mass times acceleration.
For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. The force used to thrust the rocket upward is pressurized air. Air is placed into the rocket. The more air you put into the rocket the closer the air molecules are squeezed together. Therefore, when the flaps of the launch pad are released the air forces its way out of the bottle and the acceleration of the air causes thrust.
