| Abstract | The purpose of this experiment is to determine which angle for a rocket nose cone is the most aerodynamic, thus allowing a rocket to reach the highest point. This will be determined by launching several rockets with different angled cones. The rockets are powered by compressed black powder (gun powder), but the gun powder used in the rocket is different from the gunpowder used in guns and other artillery because the rocket’s version of gunpowder is much safer. |
