Q: The propulsion of rockets is based on which law of physics?  

Answer: B

Rockets are propelled by burning fuel which creates a high-speed gas that is ejected from the nozzle, producing momentum. To balance this momentum, an equal and opposite reaction force is produced in the combustion chamber, which makes the rocket project forward. This is based on the law of conservation of momentum.
