Equations of motion

Overview
-
14 Flight mechanics
Equations of motion Newtons laws
Newtons laws only hold with respect to a frame of reference which is in absolute rest. This is called an inertial frame of reference
Coordinate systems translating uniformly to the frame of reference in absolute rest are also inertial frames of reference
A rotating frame of reference is not an inertial frame of reference

energy)
The compression ratio (p2 / p1) at the intake is relatively low (in the
order of 1 2)
Compression ratio in the compressor is relatively high (in the order of
