Rocket Launch-Horizontal and Vertical motion:

[for0008]

Homework Statement

Does changing the thrust(amount of gunpowder) in the rocket alter both the horizontal and vertical speeds?

Homework Equations

I worked this bit out
Rocket A has less gunpowder and horizontal motion was 8m/s
Rocket B with more gunpowder was 10m/s



3. The Attempt at a Solution [c}
I know it changes vertical but wasn't sure about horizontal. i wasn't sure if the changes in horizontal speed was just due to the difference in wind speed or if it had to do with changing the gunpowder

you need to give a better problem description, angles and initial velocity's.
