I'm no physics expert, but it seems like in real life the take off velocity is stronger at first and gets lower the higher it goes instead of vise versa like it

I'm no physics expert, but it seems like in real life the take off velocity is stronger at first and gets lower the higher it goes instead of vise versa like it is here. It gets faster the higher it goes instead of slower. Shouldn't it be the other way around?
But this is pretty cool regardless.
- robin_reala 15y agoIt would in ballistics, but a firework is a rocket. It accelerates as it gets higher because the rocket is constantly providing more thrust. I am also not a physics expert so by all means correct me :)
- acomjean 15y agoI think most "big time" fireworks you see are more like a "Mortar" not a rocket. It gets its initial thrust through and explosion and is sent up a tube. I'm not an expert either.
