An aircraft with a turbojet engine is flying with 250 m/s speed at an altitude,
where the density of air is 1 kg/m3. The inlet area of the engine is 1 m2. The
average velocity of the exhaust gases at the exit of the nozzle, with respect to
aircraft, is 550 m/s. Assume the engine exit pressure is equal to the ambient
pressure and the fuel-air ratio is negligible. The uninstalled thrust produced
by the engine at these conditions is _________ N
(rounded off to the nearest integer).
