An engineer is designing the runway for an airport. Of the planes that will use the airport, the
lowest acceleration rate is likely to be 3 m/s2. The takeoff speed for this plane will be 65 m/s.
Assuming this minimum acceleration, what is the minimum allowed length for the runway?
Solution
vf2 = vi2 + 2*a*d (65 m/s)2 = (0 m/s)2 + 2*(3 m/s2)*d 4225 m2/s2 = (0 m/s)2 + (6
m/s2)*d (4225 m2/s2)/(6 m/s2) = d d = 704 m.
