Given the final velocity (Vf) and the acceleration (a), the distance that should be traveled by the plane is calculated through the equation, d = (Vf² - Vi²) / 2a V1 should be zero because the light plane started the motion from rest. Substituting the given values, d = ((33 m/s)² - 0)) / 2(3 m/s²) The distance is therefore equal to 181.5 meters.
