Question

Transcribed Image Text:Assume that a fully loaded plane starting from rest has a constant aceleration while moving down a runway, The plane requires 0.7 mile of runway and a speed of 160 miles per hour in order to lift
off. What is the plane's acceleration, in mi/hr? (Round your answer to two decimal places.)

- sketch what you think the speed time graph would look like for a vehicle that begins at 10 m/hr. and remains at that speed for 10 minutes. Label this section A. Then the vehicle (over a five-minute interval) increases speed from 10 to 20 m/hr. Label this section B. Then immediately the vehicle begins to slow down. It takes the vehicle 10 minutes to slow down from 20 m/hr. to zero. Label this section C. This graph would have 3 intervals. The first interval (A) is from 0 to 10 minutes. The second interval (B) is from 10 minutes to 15 minutes. The third interval (C) is from 15 minutes to 25 minutes. The x-axis needs to go from zero to 25 minutes. The y axis needs to go from zero to 20 m/hr. Describe the motion of the vehicle in each interval as increasing, decreasing, constant, or at rest.arrow_forwardFreight trains can produce only relatively small accelerations and decelerations. a) What is the final velocity of a freight train that accelerates at a rate of 0.0495 m/s² for 5 min, starting with an initial velocity of 4.55 m/s? b) If the train can slow down at a rate of 0.051 m/s², how long will it take to come to a stop from this velocity? 9.
