density at sea level = 0.0023769 slugs/cu ft
density at 40000 ft altitude = 0.00058727 slugs/cu ft
otherwise,

density=0.0023769*0.29709*exp((36000.-h)/20786.)
  1. What is the takeoff lift-off distance at sea-level (integrated method)?
  2. The aircraft begins a cruise-climb at 40,000 ft with 1000 gallons of fuel on board. How far can it go and have 50 gallons left to begin descent to landing?
  3. At 1000 ft altitude (assume sea-level atmospheric conditions), the aircraft is out of fuel and flies so as to achieve a maximum glide distance to the runway.
    1. What is its angle of se
