8. Which of the following statements correctly explains why a water rocket can move up?

ASSIGNMENT BOOK Unit 9 Part 2

A. As water is being pushed out of the rocket, the weight of the rocket decreases. The rocket therefore moves up.

B. As water is being pushed out of the rocket, the force of gravity pulling the rocket decreases. The rocket therefore moves up.
