An Airbus A310 is initially moving down the runway at 7.0 m/s preparing for takeoff. The pilot pulls on the throttle so that the engines give the plane a constant acceleration of 1.8 m/s2. The plane then travels a distance of 1500 m down the runway before lifting off. How long does it take from the application of the acceleration until the plane lifts off, becoming airborne?
