A water rocket uses water as its reaction mass, with a plastic soft drink bottle as the pressure vessel engine. Compressed air forces the water out of the bottle, propelling the rocket into the air as an example of Newton's third law of motion where every action has an equal and opposite reaction.

A water rocket is a type of model rocket using water as its reaction mass.
The pressure vesselthe engine of
the rocketis usually a used plastic soft drink bottle. The water is forced out by a pressurized gas, typically compressed air. It is an example of Newton's third law of motion.
