SOLUTION: you are traveling at 7651 fpm and an obstacle is 5 nm from the point where you lift off the runway. if your rate of climb is 708 feet per minute, what altitude will you be at when

Question 825065: you are traveling at 7651 fpm and an obstacle is 5 nm from the point where you lift off the runway. if your rate of climb is 708 feet per minute, what altitude will you be at when you reach the obstacle

---
s = d / t
t = d / s
---
time to obstacle:
t = (5 nm * 6076 ft/nm)/7651 fpm
t = 3.970722781335773 min
---
altitude at obstacle:
d = s * t
d = 708 * 3.970722781335773
d = 2811.3 ft
