A big fave here is to attach rocket bodies to dynamics carts, which in
turn are guided by wires on a track. The engines have impulse
measurements given, though you might get a better estimate by
integrating the force-time curve on the engine spec's sheet. This can
be nicely compared to the resulting change in momentum.

Everyone,

I am working with este rockets with my classes for the first time this

week.  Does anyone have  good labs or suggestions to go with a rocket

unit?  Some of the rockets record altitude.

Thanks,
