When a plane is landing on the runway, it primarily has kinetic energy. As the aircraft descends, its potential energy decreases but is converted into kinetic energy as it gains speed. The kinetic energy is then used for braking and stopping the plane on the runway.

How fast does an airliner fly when it's landing?

An approach (landing) speed is determined by the type of plane, weight, weather and the condition of the runway. A heavy 747-400 might have a landing speed of 160 KIAS (knots indicated air speed) or about 185 mph.

How long after landing must and aircraft remain grounded?

Short answer...it doesn't. For pilots practicing approach and landing, there's a technique called touch-and-go. The plane touches down and right away takes off again without ever leaving the runway. The question is very general as it doesn't refer to a specific type of aircraft or use. Large passenger airplanes will take time to refuel and replenish the food and drinks. Also, the jets have a cool-down time requirement for their brakes. The amount of time will depend on many factors, including if they have brake cooling fans installed (like the Airbus A300). The brakes will reach peak temperature about 20 to 40 minutes after a landing with heavy braking. If the plane takes off too soon and it the take-off is aborted, the brakes may overheat and not stop the plane within the length of the runway.

What will be the speed of the plane while take off and landing?

Varies considerably due to size, engines type weight act . However, the smallest plane is 70 knots and something like a 737 is 150 average Takeoff and landing speeds depend on aircraft weight, airfoil, airfoil configuration, and air density. They can vary from zero knots (VTOL) on up to 200 plus knots.

When does a passenger aircraft go fastest at take off or at landing?

Type your answer here... takeoff. That is when the plane is accelerating and leaving the ground. Wouldn't you think that you would be going slower when you're trying to stop.
