Chapter 2 Flashcards
Applied to fuzes that gear-timing device in conjunction with setback principle.
Acceleration/deceleration
The initiating device ignites propellant grain. Assembly consisting electric squib match composition black powder magnesium powder
Igniter
Misfire that later fires delay ignition
Hangfire
Result when a rocket does not fire when circuit is energized
Misfire
Propulsive compound rocket consists of propellant igniter and nozzle.
Motor
Solid fuel in a rocket motor which upon burning generates a volume of hot gasses
Propellant grain
Weapon propelled by substained reaction of discharged jet gas against container of gas.
Rocket
React to acceleration or rocket. A safety feature designed into those fixes that use fear timing device
Setback
Force exerted by gases produced by brining of rocket motor propellant
Thrust
Pressure inside the rocket motor provides what percent force to move it forward
70%
Rocket consist of three major components
Motor ;warhead; fuze
What is s WAFFAR rockets
