The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Convert the speed from km/h to m/s The speed required for takeoff is given as 72 km/h. We need to convert this to meters per second (m/s). \[ \text{Speed in m/s} = \frac{72 \text{ km/h} \times 1000 \text{ m/km}}{3600 \text{ s/h}} = 20 \text{ m/s} \] ### Step 2: Use the kinematic equation to find acceleration We know the initial speed \( u = 0 \), final speed \( v = 20 \text{ m/s} \), and the distance \( s = 150 \text{ m} \). We can use the kinematic equation: \[ v^2 = u^2 + 2as \] Substituting the known values: \[ (20)^2 = 0 + 2a(150) \] \[ 400 = 300a \] Solving for \( a \): \[ a = \frac{400}{300} = \frac{4}{3} \text{ m/s}^2 \] ### Step 3: Calculate the frictional force The frictional force \( f_{\text{friction}} \) can be calculated using the formula: \[ f_{\text{friction}} = \mu \cdot N \] Where \( N \) is the normal force, which is equal to the weight of the airplane: \[ N = mg \] Given: - Mass \( m = 1500 \text{ kg} \) - Coefficient of friction \( \mu = 0.4 \) - Acceleration due to gravity \( g = 9.8 \text{ m/s}^2 \) Calculating \( N \): \[ N = 1500 \cdot 9.8 = 14700 \text{ N} \] Now calculating the frictional force: \[ f_{\text{friction}} = 0.4 \cdot 14700 = 5880 \text{ N} \] ### Step 4: Calculate the minimum force exerted by the engine Using Newton's second law, the net force \( F \) acting on the airplane is given by: \[ F = ma + f_{\text{friction}} \] Substituting the values we have: \[ F = 1500 \cdot \frac{4}{3} + 5880 \] Calculating \( F \): \[ F = 2000 + 5880 = 7880 \text{ N} \] ### Conclusion The minimum force exerted by the engine of the aeroplane for takeoff is: \[ \boxed{7880 \text{ N}} \]
