    Calculating Jet Engine Thrust and Power | Rocket Thrust Question

    ahh yes, sorry about that. here's what i know. i know that it change in momentum is obviously is impulse. So i have it set to a 1 second time frame, and i found: initial momentum = ((77 kg + 4 kg) * 246 m/s) = 19926 kg*m/s TOTAL MASS * VELOCITY = Momentum...

    Calculating Jet Engine Thrust and Power | Rocket Thrust Question

    Homework Statement A jet aircraft is traveling at 246 m/s in horizontal flight. The engine takes in air at a rate of 77.0 kg/s and burns fuel at a rate of 4.00 kg/s. If the exhaust gases are ejected at 633 m/s relative to the aircraft, find the thrust of the jet engine and the delivered power...
