First of all, the speed of light needs 10googleplexso the speed of an ion thruster might be at least 1 out of 1000000000000000000000 of that speed so if you take that into mind you get at least 400010 pounds of thrust. But can somebody add to this, i dont now if that is right or not.
In an ion thruster, xenon gas is ionized by stripping electrons from its atoms to create positively charged ions. These ions are then accelerated and ejected at high speeds, generating thrust. Xenon is preferred for ion thrusters due to its high atomic mass and low reactivity, allowing for efficient propulsion.
The speed of xenon ions exiting an ion thruster typically ranges from 15 to 30 kilometers per second. This high speed is achieved through the acceleration of xenon ions by an electric field within the thruster.
Yes, electricity can produce thrust in certain applications. For example, in ion thrusters, electricity is used to ionize a propellant gas and accelerate the resulting ions to generate thrust. This technology is often used in spacecraft propulsion for long-duration missions.
i guess when the engines are set to full thrust, and when the plane leaves the ground...
Ion propelled rockets use the noble gas Xenon. It is used as plasma, which is the fourth state of matter. Since plasma is found everywhere on the planet, refueling is quite simple. Electric energy must be used for this, instead of chemical.

The word 'thruster' means an object or person that thrusts and accelerates quick. One could thrust a bat towards a ball for example or their hand towards someones face.

Trust? Or thrust?
A tongue crib is a metal device on the roof of your mouth that trains your tongue to not touch your teeth if your a "tongue thruster". When you tongue thrust your tongue pushes on your teeth, pushing them forward therefore making your top jaw push out and create an overbite. Sources:I am a tongue thruster and I have a tongue crib.
my thruster bike cost is $80
An azimuth thruster is an engine and ship's propeller in a pod which is azimuth adjustable.
I am providing the following link in order to help answer this question. It is a link to the website of an agency called Qinetiq, who is one half of what used to be D.E.R.A (Defence Evaluation and Research Agency) They build Ion thrusters among other things. This particular thruster (the T5) may or may not be the most efficient available, I leave it to you to decide. www.qinetiq.com/home/defence/defence_solutions/space/ep/t5_ion_thruster.html
maximum thrust is obtained.
Maximum thrust: 13,500 lbf (60 kN) dry thrust / 20,000 lbf (89 kN) with reheat
