Air at 7°C enters a turbojet engine at a rate of 16 kg/s and at a velocity of 220 m/s (relative to the engine). Air is heated in the combustion chamber at a rate 15,000 kJ/s, and it leaves the engine at 427°C. Determine the thrust produced by this turbojet engine.

An air compressor is defined as a machine that uses electric motor or gas engine to power a device that sucks in successive volumes of air from the atmosphere and compresses (squeezes) each volume of air in a confined place to increase its pressure by making the volume smaller, and then transfer the high-pressure air to a receiver tank. How can you reduce a certain power requirement for a single-stage compressor? Show some proof theoretically.
