A turbojet engine is shown below. Indicate the expected changes (+, -, or = for increase, decrease, or no change) in stagnation pressure and temperature for each engine component, and indicate the mechanism(s) for the change. Explain in a few sentences why axial turbines have fewer number of stages than axial turbofan engines.

1. The figure below shows the configuration of the center (tail-mounted) jet on an airliner, such
as Boeing 727. The airliner is cruising at a constant altitude at a constant velocity. The
velocities shown in the figure are relative to an observer on board of the plane. Calculate the
thrust force that the jet engine exerts on the plane. (20 pts)
