Question
A plane takes off from a runway travelling due east with a velocity of 246 km/hour at an angle of 13.5 degrees above the horizontal.
A plane takes off from a runway travelling due east with a velocity of 246 km/hour at an angle of 13.5 degrees above the horizontal. It travels at constant velocity for 15 minutes at which time it levels off and travels at a cruising speed of 489.9 km/hour for one hour at angle of 20.1 degrees South of East. It then descends towards another runway for 15 minutes, also running eastward making an angle 7.2 with respect to the ground at 283.1 km/hour. What is the magnitude of the plane's average acceleration (in m/s2) for the entire time it is in the air?
