A fully loaded air plane with a mass of 330.2 tonnes is at one end of the runway and about to take off. Assume that the plane starts from rest with constant acceleration until it reaches the take-off speed of 85.81 ms-1. The air plane uses two jet engines each developing 456.7 kN thrust at full power. Neglect air resistance and friction between the tires and the runway.

Calculate the length of the runway, in metres, required for take-off.



Any idea how I can be able to start and solve this questions? Hints please.

Hi Synergy80, welcome to PF

your probelm says the plane:
starts at rest (v0 = 0)
moves with constant acceleration,
and you know the power and the final velocity...

any idea how to relate a, P and v?
try and show some working

It's given a gas of particles all identical which has T fixed and spin S. Let's ##g(\epsilon)## the density of orbital states and ##g(\epsilon) = g_0## for ##\forall \epsilon \in [\epsilon_0, \epsilon_1]##, zero otherwise. How to compute the number of accessible quantum states of one particle? This is my attempt, and I suspect that is not good. Let S=0 and then bosons in a system. Simply, if we have the density of orbitals we have to integrate ##g(\epsilon)## and we have...
