Question

the landing of an aircraft is which motion.... plz answer fast and help me plz

Answer 1

Answer:

The landing of an air craft is an example of projectile motion, as the air craft has velocities in both x and y directions and covers both horizontal and vertical distances. However, because its path is not parabolic, this motion is often confused for rectilinear, but you must remember that rectilinear motion is one-dimensional, but the landing of a plane is two-dimensional, hence it's not rectilinear. Now, you may ask as to why its path is not parabolic ? That's because an aircraft is continuously powered by an engine, and hence, unlike other projectiles, it doesn't fall to the ground taking a parabolic trajectory. I hope you understood :)
