Arrange the following sequential stages of rocket propulsion from the initial trigger to the continuous flight phase:\n1. Combustion of fuel in the combustion chamber producing high-pressure gas.\n2. Escaping of hot gases through the nozzle at extremely high velocity in the downward direction.\n3. Generation of an upward reaction force (thrust) acting on the rocket.\n4. Continuous increase in rocket acceleration as its mass decreases due to fuel consumption.\nSelect the correct sequence:
