Answer:
86.17m/s
Explanation:
Since the motion is of constant acceleration, we can use one of the equations of motion as follows;
v² = u² + 2as
Where;
v = final velocity of the airplane
u = initial velocity of the airplane
s = distance covered by the plane
a = acceleration
From the question,
u = 15m/s
s = 600m
a = 6m/s²
Substitute these values into the equation above as follows;
v² = 15² + 2(6)(600)
v² = 225 + 7200
v² = 7425
v = √7425
v = 86.17m/s
Therefore, the final velocity of the airplane is 86.17m/s
