HELLO EVERY ONE

An airplane moves on the runway of the airport at aconstant acceleration, then it takes off after it travels 1.5 km on the runway at avelocity of 210 km/h . what is the acceleration of the airplane ? (please by integral)

$\displaystyle \displaystyle \int_{t}^{t_2}a(t)dt=v(t_2)-v(t)=210$

Initial time let's say t=0. How long did it take to travel 1.5km? That will be $\displaystyle t_2$.

We also know $\displaystyle a(t)=k$

$\displaystyle \displaystyle \int_{0}^{t_2}kdt=v(t_2)-v(0)=210\Rightarrow kt|_0^{t_2}=kt_2=v(t_2)-v(0)=210$

Can you assume the initial velocity is 0?

yes, initial velocity = 0

$\displaystyle \displaystyle \int_{0}^{t_2}kdt=v(t_2)-v(0)=210\Rightarrow kt|_0^{t_2}=kt_2=v(t_2)=210$

This is your integral, k is acceleration, and t_2 is the time it took for the plane to travel 1.5 km.

$\displaystyle \displaystyle \Delta v = \int_0^t a \, dt$

$\displaystyle \Delta v = at = 210 \, km/hr$


$\displaystyle \displaystyle \Delta x = \int_0^t at \, dt$

$\displaystyle \displaystyle \Delta x = \frac{1}{2}at^2 = 1.5 \, km$

you have two equations with two unknowns ... solve for $\displaystyle a$. note that the units will be

$\displaystyle km/hr^2$

Thanks for the help, everyone! I appreciate it!
