Answer:
The acceleration of the plane is 35.6 meters per square second.
Explanation:
By Newton's Laws of Motion, we know that force ([tex]F[/tex]), in newtons, is directly proportional to acceleration ([tex]a[/tex]), in meters per square second. That is:
[tex]F \propto a[/tex]
If four engines are running simultaneously and each produce the same force, then we find that acceleration of the plane is:
[tex]a_{T} = 4\cdot \left(8.9\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)[/tex]
[tex]a_{T} = 35.6\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}[/tex]
The acceleration of the plane is 35.6 meters per square second.
