Aircraft require longer takeoff distances, called takeoff rolls, at high altitude

Chapter 1, Problem 36

(choose chapter or problem)

Aircraft require longer takeoff distances, called takeoff rolls, at high altitude airports because of diminished air density. The table shows how the takeoff roll for a certain light airplane depends on the airport elevation. (Takeoff rolls are also strongly influenced by air temperature; the data shown assume a temperature of 0 C.) Determine a formula for this particular aircraft that gives the takeoff roll as an exponential function of airport elevation. Elevation (ft) Sea level 1000 2000 3000 4000 Takeoff roll (ft) 670 734 805 882 967 3
