Action: Exhaust gases forced downward. Reaction: Rocket pushed upward. Equal and opposite forces!
Drag the loose wire end to the bulb terminal to close the circuit. Electrons flow and the bulb glows!
Add batteries, connect an iron spoke as resistor, and place a voltmeter & ammeter to measure. Watch how I = V รท R changes live!
