Question

As the aeroplane accelerates, the pilot keeps the engines at constant power. The
aeroplane eventually reaches a constant speed.
1. Explain why the aeroplane stops accelerating and reaches a constant speed.

Answer 1

Answer:

Answer

Explanation:

If the thrust is increased, the aircraft accelerates and the velocity increases. ... Eventually, the new drag equals the new thrust level and at that point, the forces again balance out, and the acceleration stops. The airplane continues to fly at a new constant velocity that is higher than the initial velocity.
