Just after taking off, the aeroplane continues to accelerate as it gains height. State two forms of energy that increase during this time.

Respuesta :

Answer:

The two forms of energy that increase during the time after take off are;

1) The kinetic energy KE

1) The potential energy PE

Explanation:

1) Given that the airplane is accelerating, we have that the velocity, v, of the airplane is increasing, such that the we have the kinetic energy, KE, for a given mass, m, of the airplane increasing as follows;

KE₂ = 1/2×m×v₂² > KE₁ = 1/2×m×v₁²

2) Also, as the height, h, of the airplane increases during the ascent, we have that the potential energy increasing along side as follows;

PE₂ = m × g × h₂ > PE₁ = m × g × h₁

Therefore, the two forms of energy that increase during the time after take off are the kinetic  and the potential  energy.
