Most low flying fighter jets reduce speed in civilian areas (during peacetime) to around 450-500 mph.

Will a clogged pilot jet cause backfiring?

Yes, a clogged pilot jet can cause backfiring in an engine. When the pilot jet is obstructed, it restricts the flow of fuel during low-speed operation, leading to a lean fuel mixture. This can result in incomplete combustion, causing backfires in the exhaust system as unburned fuel ignites. Proper maintenance and cleaning of the carburetor are essential to prevent this issue.


What is the working principle of deep well jet water pump?

A deep well jet water pump operates on the principle of creating a vacuum to lift water from deep underground. It consists of a jet assembly that uses a high-velocity jet of water to create a low-pressure area, allowing groundwater to be drawn into the pump. As water enters the jet assembly, it mixes with the high-velocity jet and is propelled upward through a discharge pipe. This system effectively utilizes the energy from the water flow to lift and deliver water to the surface.


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.


WHY DOES A JET ENGINE SOUND LOUDER THAN A LAWN MOWER FROM THE SAME DISTANCE AWAY?

A jet engine sounds louder than a lawn mower from the same distance due to its higher thrust and the nature of the noise it produces. Jet engines generate sound from both the combustion process and the high-speed exhaust gases, creating a broad spectrum of frequencies, including low-frequency sounds that travel farther. In contrast, lawn mowers primarily produce noise from the engine and cutting blades, which tends to be at higher frequencies that dissipate more quickly. Additionally, jet engines operate at much higher power levels, contributing to their overall louder sound profile.


What is jp7?

'JP-7', where JP stands for 'Jet Propellant' is a jet fuel for the use in supersonic aircraft because of its high flash and thermal stability. For example in SR-71,because of the high temp. environment in which the engine operates, it uses low volatile JP 7 jet fuel which requires a chemical ignition system.

What is the speed of an F-16 fighter jet?

An F-16's maximum speed "at sea level" (Flying low) is Mach 1.2 (915 mph - 1.470 km/h). An F-16's maximum speed "at altitude" (Flying high) is Mach 2.0 (1.500 mph - 2.400 km/h). Most fighter jets usually fly just below Mach 1 when cruising (Cruising speed) to save fuel. Going very fast costs a lot of fuel.


If A large jet flying overhead is low enough so that a man on the ground can hear its engines. The man sees the jet before he hears the engines because?

The speed of light is faster than the speed of sound


How are the airfoils of a stunt plane and fighter jet different?

The airfoils on a stuntplane are meant to make it extremely manueverable at low speed, so the control surfaces are much larger. Jet fighters need less movement.


Why are fighter jet planes flying so low just above our house and is it safe and legal?

Low flying of jet planes is not permitted over domestic areas. The sound waves are likely to cause damage to loose glass panes besides injurious to cardiac patients. If it crosses sound barrier, the sonic waves will cause severe vibrations and also effects cardiac function.


Why you see smoke of high flying airplanes?

That line of smoke is called a vapor trail. You can still see it on low flying planes, but it must be a jet plane.


Do fighter jets have transmission?

Not a transmission as you know it to change the speed of the vehicle. But every jet engine has a kind of transmission called a CSD that is like a PTO on a farm vehicle. In the CSD, engine speed is altered to drive the fuel, oil and hydraulic pumps and to perform similar low output tasks.


A jet plane traveling at a speed of 82 miles per hour is traveling at what speed in meters per second?

Apart from the fact that a jet plane would stall at that low a speed, the speed is equivalent to 36.657 metres per sec


Can a low flying jet break glass?

yes. the plane is thicker than glass.it would still shatter the glass


Can a court take judicial notice that a sonic boom caused by a jet aircraft flying at low altitude was an explosion?

Yes, because to someone who does not know about the speed of sound or doesnt expect it, a sonic boom sounds just like an explosion.


Is the B-2 Spirit a jet?

Yes. The B-2 is a US Air Force bomber that is powered by jet engines and is a flying wing with a low radar cross section---i.e. a stealth bomber.


What makes a carb run rich?

it has to do with the high speed and low/idle jets and how they are set or maybe the float is to unbalanced and need adjustment if the jet are permanently set, the jets are turned in a certain amount to adjust how much fuel goes through this hole the jet regulates . so if you turn a jet way out it will run wayyy rich and turn it in to far it runs "lean" which can be bad for a motor if run to long , so u need the high speed low speed jet setting if that is the case otherwize it most likely the float.


How much does a Black Raven fighter jet cost?

two.three million pounds Addendum: It would be rather hard to buy a fighter jet for such a low price these days - 20-40 million would be nearer the mark. In addition to which there is no such aircraft as a "Black Raven", so you'd also have to design, develop and manufacture one - considerably more expensive than any of the prices mentioned above.
