Why would Jet Engines not work in space? |
|
Definition
because they work by drawing air in and pushing it out, the force pushes the plane forward. But there is no air in space.

How does a car move forward? |
|
Definition
The wheels exert a backwards force on the road, friction stops the wheel from spinning and exerts an equal and opposite force on the on the car which starts moving forward.
