A jet airplane travelling at the speed of 500 km/hr ejects its products of combustion at the speed of 1500 km/hr relative to the jet plane. What is the speed of the later with respect to an observer on the ground?
Let the velocity of ejecting gases with respect to ground be .
Velocity of jet plane,
Velocity of ejected products w.r.t. jet plane,
Now, relative velocity of ejecting gases w.r.t the jet plane is given by,
