 Take-off Length
m dU/dt = T- D -  (W-L)

 is the rolling resistance coefficient

L
T

W
 Take-off Length
dU/dt = a = g(T/W- D/W -  (1-L/W))

 is the rolling resistance coefficient

L
T

W
Take-off Length (simple case)
dU/dt = a = g(T/W - )

assume lift and drag are negligible during ground run!

W
Take-off Length (simple case)
dU/dt = a = g(T/W - )

assume T/W constant and  = 0.02 (concrete)

W
Take-off Length (simple case)
dU/dt = a = g(T/W - ) = constant

(linear acceleration)
U= at, x = at2/2, x = a (U/a)2/2 = U2/2a
Take-off Length (simple case)
dU/dt = a = g(T/W - )
x = U2/2a
x = U2/(2g(T/W- )
Take-off Length (simple case)
x = U2/(2g(T/W- ) need high T/W

U = Uto = (2W/(CLto S))1/2 need low W/S

Take-off Length (simple case)
x = U2/(2g(T/W- ) need high T/W

U = Uto = (2W/(CLto S))1/2 need low W/S
