The figure below shows the altitude of the aircraft during a typical mission. It climbs from 24,000 ft to 30,850 ft, where it begins a parabolic arc with a velocity of 155 m/s at 45.0° nose-high and exits with velocity 155 m/s at 45.0° nose-low. 31 000 45° nose high 45° nose low 24 000 Zero g 65 Maneuver time (s) (a) What is the aircraft's speed (in m/s) at the top of the parabolic arc? 110.0 m/s (b) What is the aircraft's altitude (in ft) at the top of the parabolic arc? 2.04e+04 What is the initial height at the start of the parabolic arc?
