    Examining Density's Impact on Projectile Motion

    Let me clarify. When launching bottle rockets, I've noticed that they typically start off strong and then have the tendency to "fizzle out" and almost float down to the ground instead of following a more parabolic motion. Does the density of the actual rocket affect that motion?

    Examining Density's Impact on Projectile Motion

    I'm still new to the field of physics and have undertaken a project in furthering my understanding of projectile motion. Can density affect the parabolic shape of a projectile especially concerning the tail end of its motion?
