A plane is coming in to taxi at an airport. It lands parallel to the surface at 480m/s and takes exactly one minute to come to a complete stop. What is its acceleration?

Respuesta :

The acceleration of the plane will be −8 m/s²

How to find the acceleration of a plane?

Acceleration is the rate of change in velocity over time (Δv/t).

Given, that the initial velocity of the plane u=480 m/s

The final velocity of the plane is zero after landing, v= 0 m/s

t= 1 minute= 60 seconds

we know, v=u + at

0= 480 + 60a

a=[tex]\frac{-480}{60}[/tex]  = -8m/s²

Thus, the acceleration of the plane is -8 m/s²

(negative acceleration implies that the object is slowing down)
