The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to determine how long it will take for the airplane to reach an altitude of 9 km while flying at an angle of 30 degrees with a speed of 180 km/h. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Given Information:** - Angle of takeoff, θ = 30 degrees - Speed of the airplane, v = 180 km/h - Altitude to reach, h = 9 km 2. **Break Down the Velocity into Components:** - The vertical component of the velocity (uy) can be calculated using the sine function: \[ uy = v \cdot \sin(θ) = 180 \cdot \sin(30^\circ) \] - Since \(\sin(30^\circ) = \frac{1}{2}\): \[ uy = 180 \cdot \frac{1}{2} = 90 \text{ km/h} \] 3. **Calculate the Time to Reach the Altitude:** - We need to find the time (t) it takes to reach an altitude of 9 km. We can use the formula: \[ t = \frac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Speed}} = \frac{h}{uy} \] - Substituting the values we have: \[ t = \frac{9 \text{ km}}{90 \text{ km/h}} = \frac{1}{10} \text{ hours} \] 4. **Convert Time into Minutes:** - To convert hours into minutes, we multiply by 60: \[ t = \frac{1}{10} \cdot 60 = 6 \text{ minutes} \] ### Final Answer: The time it will take for the airplane to reach an altitude of 9 km is **6 minutes**. ---
