Answer:
a) 20 seconds
b) No.
Explanation:
t = Time taken for jet to stop
u = Initial velocity = 100 m/s (given in the question)
v = Final velocity = 0 (because the jet will stop at the end)
s = Displacement of the jet (Distance between the moment the jet touches the ground to the point the point it stops)
a = Acceleration = -5.00 m/s² (slowing down, so it is negative)
a) Equation of motion
[tex]v=u+at\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{v-u}{a}\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{0-100}{-5}\\\Rightarrow t=20\ s[/tex]
The time required for the plane to slow down from the moment it touches the ground is 20 seconds.
[tex]s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow s=100\times 20+\frac{1}{2}\times -5\times 20^2\\\Rightarrow s=1000\ m[/tex]
The distance it requires for the jet to stop is 1000 m so in a small tropical island airport where the runway is 0.800 km long the plane would not be able to land. The runway needs to be atleast 1000 m long here the runway on the island is 1000-800 = 200 m short.
