Question

The altitude is an airplane in is decreasing at a rate of 44 ft./s. What is the change of altitude of the airplane over the period of 45 seconds

Answer 1

The change in altitude of the airplane over the period of 45 seconds can be found by multiplying the rate of decrease by the time period:

Change in altitude = rate of decrease * time
Change in altitude = 44 ft./s * 45 s
Change in altitude = 1980 ft.

Therefore, the change in altitude of the airplane over the period of 45 seconds is 1980 feet.
