The data proves that the size of the fins do impact the height of the rocket. When launched with the small fins, the rocket reached a height of 38.35 meters and had a time of 5.54 seconds. The larger fins appeared to make a difference in the height. The height achieved with the larger fins was 48.82 meters and accomplished a time of 6.25 seconds. This data proves that the hypothesis was correct. This experiment was to show us how Newton’s Third Law of Motion works and how it is applied to any kind of rocket. During this experiment, errors with the rocket occurred. When launching, I realized that the cone was tilted more to one side. This error could have affected the rocket’s flight. The next time I will build a rocket, I will try
