Air goes in the front end, is compressed by the turbine, then kerosene fuel is sprayed in and ignites, and the expanding gases blow out the back end creating thrust and pushing the plane forward. The escaping gas also turns the turbine on the back end that is connected to the turbine on the front end compressing the air coming in the front end.

What kind of engines are in a plane?
jet engines, turbojet engines, turbo-prop engines, four-stroke piston driven engines... Can you be more specific?
What type of plane did the jet replace?
The jet did not 'replace' any type of plane, it was just another logical step in the development of aircraft engines.The jet did not 'replace' any type of plane, it was just another logical step in the development of aircraft engines.
What is the Jet Engine's purpose?
The Jet engines purpose is to create thrust.With out Thrust a plane would not be able to fly.
