An aircraft of 2 metric tonnes lands with 400 kilojoules of energy, 10 kiloNewtons of force is applied at the brakes, how far does the aircraft take to stop?
- 40 M.
- 80 M.
- 20 M.
arifadli8 asking:
i think the answer is wrong...
cause i get the distance is 80m

Work done = Force * energy.
Work required to convert all the kinetic energy = Force * distance.
So Force * distance = 400,000 Joules.
10,000 N * distance = 400,000.
Distance = 40 m.
Work required to convert all the kinetic energy = Force * distance.
So Force * distance = 400,000 Joules.
10,000 N * distance = 400,000.
Distance = 40 m.
