7. A commercial airplane lands with a speed of 150 m/s and can accelerate at a maximum rate of -5.00 m/s² as it comes to rest. (a) From the instant the plane touches the runway, how much time is needed for the airplane to stop? (b) What is the total displacement of the airplane from the instant it touches the runway to where it stopped? (c) With this displacement, can this airplane land on a small tropical island airport where the runway is 0.800 km long? Justify your answer. (
