Question: The greater the distance between the Center of Pressure and the Center of Gravity, the more stable the rocket. True or false

False. Actually, the placement of the Center of Pressure (CP) and Center of Gravity (CG) both play an important role in the stability of the rocket. Typically, for a rocket to be stable, the CG needs to be located toward the front of the rocket and the CP needs to be located toward the rear. Essentially, the CP should be below the CG. If these are reversed, the rocket could tumble. Therefore, it's not just the distance that matters but the correct placement of both points that ensures stability. Bigger distance does not necessarily imply more stability.
