An airplane is flying at 95.0 m/s when the engine is turned off. As it glides, it experiences a force of drag so that is slows down at -0.700 m/s2. How far in meters will it travel in 1.00 minute ?

Question

answer: 4440m??

Answer 1

t = 60 seconds
Vi = 95 m/s
a = - 0.7 m/s^2

x = X1 + 95 t - 0.35 t^2
x - xi = distance = 95(60) - .35(60)^2
= 5700 - 1260
= 4440 yes
