An aircraft has a liftoff speed of v = 33m/s. What minimum acceleration a does this require if the aircraft is to be airborne after a takeoff run of s = 240m? Please help I really don't understand this!!!!!

 

s=a2×t2

  

s=v×t     

 

t=sv=2sa

 

s2v2=2sa 

 

a=2v2s

 

a=2×332m2240m×s2

 

 

a=9.075ms2

 

The aircraft has to start with an acceleration of at least 9.075ms2

 

asinus :- ) laugh !
