| Newton's First Law | object at rest will stay at rest until acted upon by an outside force |
| Newton's Third Law | every action has an equal and opposite reaction |
| Thrust | forward force provided by propeller, jet, or rocket engine |
| Gravity | Downward force caused by the Earth |
| Drag | force opposite to thrust, caused by air resistance |
| Lift | created by wings, faster the speed the more lift |
| Nose Cone | first object of a rocket to "push" through the air |
| Fins | Stabalize the rocket as it travels |
| ailerons | on the wing of an airplane, causes "roll" |
| engine | source of "thrust" (upward energy) |
| rocket body | main part of rocket, can hold "payload" |
| 60 degrees | angle of rocket flight if altimeter reads 30 degrees |
| 40 degrees | angle of rocket flight if altimeter reads 50 degrees |
