Explanation:
Given that,
Initial speed of the airfield, u = 0
Final speed, v = 27.8 m/s
Acceleration of the airfield,
Length of the runway, d = 150 m
Let v' is the speed of the airplane to reach the required speed for takeoff. Finding v' using third equation of motion as :
This speed is not enough as the airfield must reach a speed before takeoff of at least 27.8 m/s. Now, the required length of the runways is :
So, the minimum length of the runways is 193.21 meters.
