A jet engine develops a thrust of 270Ns when the velocity of the exhaust gases relative to the engine is 300ms
-1. What is the mass of the material ejected per second?
-
A.
81.00kg
-
B.
9.00kg
-
C.
0.90kg
-
D.
0.09kg
Correct Answer: Option C
Explanation
Thrust = force x time
thrust = \(\frac{m(v - u)}{t}\) x \(\frac{t}{1}\)
270 = m(300 - 0)
m = 0.90kg
