3rd Launch Data


Mass of rocket empty: 155.16g
Mass of rocket w/ water: 644.67g
Flight time: 7 seconds
Time to max height: 3 seconds
Estimated height: 15 ft

This launch was very successful! The parachute deployed and the rocket shot up strait into the air! We used less water, about 1/4 of the bottle so that it was easier to get air into the rocket. It did not reach 10 full seconds like we would have wanted it to but it was the best our rocket did so far in our rocket bottle project!
