A 17,000-kg jet takes off from an aircraft carrier via a catapult (Figure 1). The gases thrust out from the jet's engines exert a constant force of 135 kN on the jet; the force exerted on the jet by the catapult is plotted in the figure. a.) Determine the work done on the jet by the gases expelled by its engines during launch of the jet. Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units. b.)Determine the work done on the jet by the catapult during launch of the jet. Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate unit
