An airplane is sitting on a runway waiting to take off. The airplane begins to move down the runway and it takes 10 s for the ai

rplane to leave the ground. The speed of the airplane at takeoff is 40 m/s. What is the acceleration of the airplane while it is moving down the runway?

Acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change)

-- You said that the airplane has to speed up from zero ("sitting") to 40 m/s, so the change in speed is 40 m/s.

-- You said that it has to roll for 10 seconds to build up enough speed to take off, so the time for the change is 10 s .

Acceleration = (40 m/s) / (10 s)

Acceleration = (40/10) (m/s)/s

<em>Acceleration = 4 m/s²</em>

That seems like no problem.  It's only like about 41% of 1 G .  That would not even spill the drinks in First Class, or wake up the passengers who are already asleep (like me).

Complete the following sentence: How much you pay in taxes depends on _________________________.
solong [7]

Answer:

How much you pay in taxes depends on the amount of your taxable income

Explanation:

The total amount expected to be payed as taxes is a factor of the amount of taxable income earned within the given tax period.

The taxable income is found by subtracting the amount of deductions and exemption allowed in the tax year from the gross income. It is also specified as the adjusted gross income

The set marginal  tax rate indicates the percentage of the taxable income that is to be paid as taxes, such that there are three different ranges or tax brackets and taxes are paid according to the bracket to which a taxable income belongs.

Effectus [21]
0.004 of something added to 0.12508 of the same thing
adds up to 0.12908 of it.  

The thing could be a glass of water, a sheet of paper,
a pound of ground beef, a gallon of gas, or a snowball.  
In this problem, it just happens to be a dm.
