Airport Engineering - Study Mode
[#76] Assertion A : The ratio of arriving and departing aircrafts influences the airport capacity: Reason R : Landing operation is generally given priority over the taking off operation. Select your answer based on the coding system given below:
Correct Answer
(A) Both A and R is true and R is the correct explanation of A
[#77] Assertion A : Airport capacity during IFR conditions is usually less than that during VFR conditions. Reason R: During clear weather condition (VFR), the aircrafts on final approach to runway can be spaced closer during poor visibility conditions. Select your answer based on the coding system given below:
Correct Answer
(A) Both A and R is true and R is the correct explanation of A
[#78] The lift off distance is the distance along the centre of the runway between the starting point and
Correct Answer
(C) Point where air craft becomes air borne
Explanation
Solution: The lift off distance is a critical measurement in airport engineering. It refers to the distance along the center of the runway between the starting point and the point where the aircraft becomes airborne. This distance is crucial for ensuring that the runway is long enough for aircraft to safely achieve the necessary speed for takeoff and leave the ground. Hence, the correct option is Point where aircraft becomes airborne .
[#79] The capacity of parallel runway pattern depends upon
Correct Answer
(D) Lateral spacing between two runways, weather conditions and navigational aids available.
[#80] The minimum width of clearway is
Correct Answer
(C) 150 m
