1. Path of Directory of the rocket 

2. Which force is acting on the rocket at the moment of launch?

At the moment of launch the force acting on the rocket was thrust.

3. As the rocket was halfway up, which forces are acting on the rocket?

As the rocket was halfway up, the forces acting on the rocket were thrust and drag.

4. As the rocket begins to veer into another direction, which force is acting on the rocket?

As the rocket started veering into another direction the force acting on the rocket is lift. Lift stabilizes and controls the direction of flight, as that changes the direction of the rocket will then also change and then soon pushed back down towards earth.

5. Did some rockets work better than others? How does the shape of the nose and fin effect the trajectory of the rocket?

Many rockets were more successful than others, it really depended on how well they were built as well as their design. I noticed that the rockets with very pointy noses that were flush with the rest of the rocket ended up having better results than the rockets with noses that were a lot wider than the rocket and stubby. The bigger the fins the more drag you were going to have, there were only a few rockets which had very large fins and they did not succeed very well. My nose was very pointy and completely flush with the rocket which gave me good results because it was easy for the rocket to cut through the air with the amount of thrust it had. My fins were designed so they would keep the rocket stable in the air but they weren’t too big where they would cause a larger amount of drag which wouldn’t give my rocket its full potential.
