They both contain the same things that both jet and rockets need.They need fire to push it up and horsepower to keep up on speed.

Working principle of rocket engine?

A rocket engine, or simply "rocket," is a jet engine[1] that uses only propellant mass for forming its high speed propulsive jet. Rocket engines are reaction engines and obtain thrust in accordance with Newton's third law. Since they need no external material to form their jet, rocket engines can be used for spacecraft propulsion as well as terrestrial uses, such as missiles. Most rocket engines are internal combustion engines, although non combusting forms also exist.Rocket engines as a group, have the highest exhaust velocities, are by far the lightest, and are the most energy efficient (at least at very high speed) of all types of jet engines. However, for the thrust they give, due to the high exhaust velocity and relatively low specific energy of rocket propellant, they consume propellant very rapidly.

What is the difference between jet engines and spaceships?

Jet engines operate by drawing in air, compressing it, mixing it with fuel, and igniting the mixture to produce thrust, relying on atmospheric oxygen for combustion. In contrast, spaceships use rocket engines, which carry both fuel and an oxidizer, allowing them to operate in the vacuum of space where there is no air. This fundamental difference allows jet engines to function within Earth's atmosphere, while rocket engines are designed for the challenges of space travel. Additionally, rocket engines typically generate much higher thrust to escape Earth's gravitational pull.


Working principal of rocket?

Rocket engines obtain their thrust in accordance with Isaac Newton's third law, making the rocket a reaction engine. A rocket engine is simply a jet engine.


What kind of engines do you require to achieve flight in earth atmosphere and in outer space?

To achieve flight in Earth's atmosphere, you would typically use jet engines, turboprop engines, or piston engines. In outer space, rocket engines are commonly used for propulsion due to the lack of air for combustion. Rocket engines propel spacecraft by expelling mass in the form of hot gases at high speeds.


What is the difference between a space shuttle and a rocket?

Answer The Space Shuttle is a rocket. By definition, a Rocket is a vehicle that burns gas that it carries with it. Where as, a jet airplane burns the oxygen from the air and is not a rocket. The Rocket when it is launched has a liquid fuel rocket engines at the back end of it. It also has two long, solid fuel rocket engines that separate after launch. But the space shuttle is pulled by a rocket.
