Thrust generated by an engine is proportional to mass flow rate.(a) True(b) FalseI got this question by my college director while I was bunking the class.This key question is from Propulsion in chapter Propulsion of Aircraft Design

Answer»

Right answer is (a) True

Easy EXPLANATION: Thrust is nothing but the propulsive force which is used to accelerate aircraft. It will be used to provide forward motion. Thrust depends upon number of FACTORS INCLUDING mass flow rate, exhaust velocity etc. A TYPICAL aircraft thrust is nothing but the change in momentum. And HENCE, it will be affected by mass flow rate.
