A fully-loaded Boeing 747 accelerates on the ground at 1.8 m/s2. How much runway does it need, in meters, to achieve a liftoff velocity of 82 m/s?

runway length  = 1,867.78 meters

Explanation:

This problem can be solved using equation of motion

where

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity and

s is the distance a body moved to reach speed equal to final velocity .

__________________________________

Given

a = 1.8 m/s2

u is the initial velocity which will be zero as the plane starts on the ground at that point speed is zero

Let S be the distance taken to reach speed 82 m/s at acceleration of 1.8 m/s^2

This , distance will be the length of runway as well.

v = 82 m/s

using the equation of motion

Thus, distance is 1,867.78 meters,

Hence , we can say that runway length should be 1,867.78 meters so that when plane lifts off its speed is 82 m/s.

molecules are free to separate from each other and will take on the shape of the container. molecules move completely at random and high speeds. they vibrate in a fixed position and do not move around much. molecules expand to the edge of their container.
