Answer:

D. Upward force on the shuttle

Explanation:

The hot gas from space shuttles released downward causes an upward force on the shuttle and propels it up the more.

  • This hot gas is produced from super cooled oxygen and hydrogen tanks within the shuttle.
  • The upward force on the shuttle allows the craft to escape the gravitational pull of the earth on the shuttle
  • Special level of rapid acceleration must be attained for the shuttle to escape the earth pull.
