Detailed explanation-1: -Like all objects, rockets are governed by Newton’s Laws of Motion. The First Law describes how an object acts when no force is acting upon it. So, rockets stay still until a force is applied to move them. Likewise, once they’re in motion, they won’t stop until a force is applied.
Detailed explanation-2: -1st Law-A rocket will remain on the launch pad until an unbalanced force is exerted, propelling the rocket upward. 2nd Law-The amount of force depends upon how much air is pumped inside the rocket.
Detailed explanation-3: -“a body in motion will remain in motion unless acted on by an external force”. In astronomical terms, this means that in space bodies continue in straight lines unless a force external to the body acts on them, and stationary bodies do not spontaneously start to move.
Detailed explanation-4: -Launching a rocket relies on Newton’s Third Law of Motion. A rocket engine produces thrust through action and reaction. The engine produces hot exhaust gases which flow out of the back of the engine. In reaction, a thrusting force is produced in the opposite reaction.
Detailed explanation-5: -Newton’s First Law of Motion states that a body in motion keeps the same motion unless acted upon by an outside force. Likewise, if it is not moving, it remains that way unless a force acts on it. Any moving object in space will travel in a straight line at the same speed forever, planets included.
