The above statement is True.
Newton's third law of motion is the physical principle at work in the working of a jet plane. “Newton’s third law states that for every action, there will be an equal and opposite reaction”. The plane moves forward as the exhaust gas from a jet engine ignites backward. Simply put, the action, or the force of the exhaust gas shooting backward, is equal to the inverse of the reaction, or the force of the plane tending to move forward. The action moves the exhaust gas, whereas the reaction moves the plane.
