Jet Engine Propulsion! • _____ enters at the front of the engine and is compressed. • The air is mixed with _______ and the gases are ignited. • The gases _________ and rush out the jet’s tailpipe at very high speeds. • This force thrusts (propels) the plane __________. • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p1TqwAKwMuM&feature=related
Airplanes vs. Rockets
Rocket Propulsion! • Tremendous thrustis needed for space shuttles to lift off and escape the gravitational pull of earth. • Since there is no airin space, rockets must carry boosterscontaining oxygenas well as fuel. • The boosters drop off when their fuelis used up (2 minutes after being launched). • They land in the oceanand are retrieved by boat. • The external fuel tank is released 8 minutes into flight and burns up re-entering Earth’s atmosphere. • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vPQvTgD2quQ&feature=player_embedded
