An airplane can ascend at a rate of meters in of a second. How many meters can the airplane ascend in one second?

Answer 1

To determine how many meters the airplane can ascend in one second, we need to know the ascent rate in meters per fraction of a second. However, it seems that part of your question is missing—the actual ascent rate in meters and the corresponding time in seconds.

If you provide the ascent rate and the fraction of a second, I can help you calculate the ascent rate in meters per second. For example, if an airplane ascends 100 meters in 5 seconds, we would perform the following calculation:

1. Determine the ascent per second: \[ \text{Ascent rate per second} = \frac{\text{Total ascent}}{\text{Time in seconds}} \] \[ = \frac{100 \text{ meters}}{5 \text{ seconds}} = 20 \text{ meters per second} \]

Please provide the specific values, and I can assist you further!
