Question
Assertion : Rocket in flight is not an illustration of projectile.
Reason : Rocket takes flight due to combustion of fuel and does not move under the gravity effect alone.

Answer

(a) Motion of rocket is based on action reaction phenomena and is governedbyrateoffuelburning causing the change in momentum of ejected gas.
