Liquid Hydrogen is the fuel used by rockets.
Explanation:
- Liquid hydrogen which can be chemically denoted as "
" is often considered as the significant fuels for rocket.
- However rocket in its lower stages uses fuels such as Kerosene and oxygen where as in the higher stages such as second and third stages it uses liquid hydrogen.
- Liquid hydrogen is known to easily cool the nozzle and then also other parts of the rocket before mixing with the oxidizer such as the oxygen.
- Thus liquid hydrogen helps in preventing nozzle erosion and also reduces combustion chamber.
- Liquid hydrogen one the other hand is very expensive as 384,071 gallons of it will cost approximately $376,389.58 .
Thus liquid hydrogen is effectively used as a fuel for rocket.
