Physics Problem: High School level dealing with acceleration?

A light plane must reach a speed of 30 m/s for takeoff. How long must the runway be if the (constant) acceleration is 3.0 m/s^2?

What formula/s will help me solve the problem?

    (v^2/2a) = 150 metres.

    ok, the graph grew to become right into a curve because of the fact because of the fact the gap will advance, the time is gradually reducing at a changing fee because of the consistent acceleration. That explains why that's a curve. additionally, the speed vs time graph grew to become right into a right this moment line because of the fact because of the fact the acceleration will advance, the speed advance, as does the time. V vs T graphs are speed as against. Time graphs. The time taken regularly is going alongside the x axis, whislt speed is going alongside the y axis. ultimately, the version between speed and velocity is that speed is velocity, yet in a undeniable direction, while velocity may be in any direction.

    If its velocity increases 3m/s every second. You can intuitively know you will reach 30 m/s in 10 seconds man.
