Equation of motion for takeoff are derived and then uses this to get the lift-off or taxi distance of the airplane on the runway. The concept of ground effect is introduced. Newton's laws of motion are used with the constant force assumption to get the takeoff distance. The effect of air density and aircraft weight on takeoff distance is explained. The importance of high lift devices such as flaps and slats for increasing CLmax (maximum lift coefficient) and reducing takeoff length is explained.
