Find total steps forward and duration of time in one slot.
velocity of jet =νA
velocity of products of combustion =νB
Calculate the speed of the products of combustion.
Given speed of jet airplane, νA=500 km/h
velocity of vB−vA will be in the negative direction.
Hence, vBA=vB−vA=−1500 km/h
Therefore, −1500=vB−500⇒vB=−1000km/h
The negative sign indicates that the direction of its products of combustion is opposite to the direction of the motion of the jet airplane.
Final Answer: The speed of the products of combustion is 1000 km/h with respect to a stationary observer on the ground.
