To take off from the ground, an airplane must reach a sufficiently high speed. The velocity required for the takeoff, the takeoff velocity, depends on several factors, including the weight of the aircraft and the wind velocity.A plane accelerates from rest at a constant rate of 5.00m/s2along a runway that is 1800mlong. Assume that the plane reaches the required takeoff velocity at the end of the runway. What is the timetTOneeded to take off?Express your answer in seconds using three significant figures.

An accomplished physical therapist stays in shape for her job by running on a track. She passes one marker running at 1.0 m/s, and continues to accelerate at 0.5 m/s2 for another 3.1 seconds. How far from the first marker did she run in that time?
John is driving his sports car down a four-lane highway at 40 m/s. He overtakes a slow-moving truck. If he can accelerate at 5 m/s², how long will it take for him to reach the speed of 60 m/s?
Suppose a car is traveling at +24.3 m/s, and the driver sees a traffic light turn red. After 0.219 s has elapsed (the reaction time), the driver applies the brakes, and the car decelerates at 4.00 m/s2. What is the stopping distance of the car, as measured from the point where the driver first notices the red light?
A train is traveling down a straight track at 32 m/s when the engineer applies the brakes, resulting in an acceleration of −1.0 m/s2 as long as the train is in motion. How far does the train move during a 64-s time interval starting at the instant the brakes are applied in meters?
While entering a freeway, a car accelerates from rest at a rate of 2.8 m/s2 for 14.5 s. How far does the car travel in those 14.5 s, in meters? And what is the car's final velocity, in meters per second?
While running a marathon, a long-distance runner uses a stopwatch to time herself over a distance of 100 m. She finds that she runs this distance in 18 s. Answer the following by considering ratios, without computing her velocity. a. If she maintains her speed, how much time will it take her to run the next 400 m?
The velocity of a train changes from 0 to 60km/hr in 20 seconds. Assuming that it is uniformly accelerated, what is the acceleration in m/s2?
A drag racer crosses the finish line, and the driver deploys a parachute and applies the breaks to slow down. The driver begins slowing down at 6 seconds and the velocity becomes 28m/s. When the time changes to 12 second, the velocity has been reduced to 12.5 m/s. What is the average acceleration of the dragster?
