Newton's Laws of Motion

.Inertia - An object at rest tends to stay at rest and an object in motion tends stay in motion.  At first the bottle rocket was in inertia because it was very still in motion.
 Acceleration/Force & Mass - When a force is applied to an object,it accelerates. The acceleration is in the
direction of the force and proportional to it's strength, and is also inversely proportional to the mass being moved. The bottle rocket was still at first,but then he burned the cap and the bottle rocket accelerated.
 Inversely Proportional - means that as the mass of an object gets larger, the amount of acceleration that the force is able to provide gets smaller. The bottle rocket was larger then it kind of melted a little.
 Action & Reaction - For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.  The rocket was moving moving to an opposite direction from the person who was holding the string near the bottle so he rocket went forward instead of backwards.
