An Airbus A320 jetliner has a takeoff mass of 75,000 kg. It reaches its takeoff speed of 82 m/s (180 mph) in 35 s. What is the thrust of the engines

175.5 kN

Explanation:

We find the acceleration of the Airbus A320 jetliner from,

a = (v - u)/t where u = initial velocity of jetliner = 0 m/s (since it starts from rest), v = final velocity of jetliner = 82 m/s and t = time for velocity change = 35 s

So a = (v - u)/t = (82 m/s - 0 m/s)/35 s = 82 m/s ÷ 35 s = 2.34 m/s²

Now, the thrust of the engines on the jetliner T = ma where m = mass of jetliner = 75,000 kg and a = acceleration of jetliner = 2.34 m/s²

T = ma

= 75,000 kg × 2.34 m/s²

= 175500 N

= 175.5 kN
