Your statement of the problem has numerous flaws. I assume the jet accelerates from rest, and that you meant "t=12degrees" above. Careful also to use acceleration units of meters per second^2, not m-s^2. Finally your value for v is incorrect.

What is the equation giving velocity in terms of acceleration and time? Once you have that you'll need the speed of sound at 12 degrees to finish the problem...
