    A rocket works on the principle of conservation of momentum. According to this principle, the momentum of the rocket is increased by expelling gas at high speed in the opposite direction, which propels the rocket forward. This is a demonstration of Newton's third law of motion, where every action has an equal and opposite reaction.
