According to the Newton’s first law of motion, an object at rest or uniform motion continue its state unless an external force acting on it.
According to the Newton’s second law of motion, the force is equal to the mass time acceleration.
According to the Newton’s third law of motion, for every action there is always an equal and opposite reaction.
According to the Newton’s law of motion, the rocket continue at rest or uniform motion until a force applied on them. An unbalanced force must be formed to change the speed or direction of rocket. This unbalanced force is determined by the mass of the gases burned in the rocket and the speed that they are ejected from the motor. Finally the motion or reaction to the force formed, is equal and opposite direction of the thrust of the motor.
