Problem 1.3. An Airbus A380 airplane weighing 500 tonne (1 ton = 1000 kg) is flying at an altitude of 36,000 ft at a speed of 900 km/hr (a) Determine its energy, E, based on kinetic and gravitational potential energy. How much - in percent - does the kinetic energy contribute to total energy? (b) Your new 60-in LED TV consumes 100 W. How long could you operate your TV with the energy E from part(a)?
