A 2.9 kg model rocket accelerates at 15.3 m/s2 with a force of 44 N. Before launch, the model rocket was not moving. After the solid rocket engine ignited, hot gases were pushed out from the rocket engine nozzle and propelled the rocket toward the sky. Which of Newton’s laws apply in this example?

Newton's first and third law of Motion

Explanation:

The laws applying in the example Newton's first and third laws of Motion.

The first law states that any object at rest (ie. not moving) will stay at rest until it is forced to move by an external force. In this case, said force were the propulsion gases ignited.As the hot gases were pushed out from the engine nozzle, there was another force equal in magnitud but opposite in direction (as the gases went down, that force went upwards), said force is directly responsible for the rocket taking off. That is an example of the third law.
