Question

LEARN MORE REMARKS To find the displacement while braking, we could have used the two kinematics equations involving time, namely, = vot + Jt2 and v = vo + at, but because we weren't interested in time, the time-independent equation was easier to use. 2 QUESTION By how much would the answer change if the plane coasted for 2.0 s before the pilot applied the brakes? PRACTICE IT Use the worked example above to help you solve this problem. A typical jetliner lands at a speed of 159 mi/h and decelerates at the rate of (10.6 mi/h)/s. If the jetliner travels at a constant speed of 159 mi/h for 1.1 s after landing before applying the brakes, what is the total displacement of the jetliner between touchdown on the runway and coming to rest? EXERCISE HINTS: GETTING STARTED I I'M STUCK! A jet lands at 64 m/s, the pilot applying the brakes 2.02 s after landing. Find the acceleration needed to stop the jet within 5.55 x 102 m after touchdown. You are neglecting some of the given information. The jet must stop within a certain distance after landing, but it does not start slowing down right away. How much distance is left on the runway once the jet starts to slow down? m/s2

Explanation / Answer

Distance, d = v*t

it applies brakes after 2.2 sec so it will have travelled , d = 64*2.02 = 129.28 m

so, total distance, "s" is

s = 555 - 129.28 = 425.72 m


v2 - u2= 2as

0 - u2= 2as

- u2 = 2as
a = - u2/2s
   = - 642 / 2*425.72
   = - 4.81 m/s^2

the value is negative because its retardation
