an airplane flies at a speed of 100 m/s and starts to accelerate constantly at a rate of 50 m/s2. how fast is the plane flying after traveling a distance of 1 kilometer?

331.7m/s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Initial velocity  = 100m/s

Acceleration  = 50m/s²

Distance  = 1km   = 1000m

Unknown:

Final velocity = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we have to apply the right motion equation shown below;

     v²  = u²  + 2aS

 v is the final velocity

 u is the initial velocity

 a is the acceleration

 S is the distance

 Now insert the parameters and solve;

     v² = 100² + (2 x 50 x 1000)

     v² = 110000

     v = √110000  = 331.7m/s
