An aircraft accelerates uniformly from rest down a runway. After a distance of 800m, the aircraft reaches its take-off speed of 288 km/h. (a) What is the acceleration of the aircraft (in m/s2)? (b) How long does it take the aircraft to reach its take-off speed? Please provide workings and solutions.

An aeroplane is fitted with an altimeter calibrated assuming the atmosphere meets the ISA specification. On a day when sea level pressure and temperature are 101,500 N/m2 and 25 degrees the altimeter reads 5000m. What is the true altitude of the plane above sea level? What would be the indicated altitude after landing at an aerodrome located at sea level? (Gas const = R=288 J/KgK) Ans = 5186m, 16.6m below sea level)
