Solution

  1. The principle on which jet planes work is Newton's third law of motion.
  2. Newton's third law state that, for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction applied to the body.
  3. When jet planes exert thrust on the surface of air, air also applies reaction force on the jet which pushes the jet with larger pressure in opposite direction.
