When a commercial jet airliner (737 etc) takes off, what is its 0-60 or 0-100mph time?
Additional Details ok, on average
if you dont know the answer
dont answer it
instead of writing crap!
All aircraft apply full power on the take-off roll.
Noise abatement only applies after take off.
Engines should not be expected to clap out just because they are on full power.
Fuel economy does not apply to the relativelty short take-off roll. Safety in the form of getting to take-off speed in the shortest possible distance/time is far more important.
High performance sports cars can 'outrun' an F15 from a standing start up to about 60mph - after which it's a 'no contest'.

it travels over 160 mph before take off.

Depends on the Aircraft and its takeoff weight - needless to say it is fast!
Steve W
iv heard its 180MPH
JeffE
It's travelling faster than that when it takes off.

Who cares? Going to race one with a car?
The only relevant number for airplanes is how fast it has to be going before it can leave the ground. That depends on the wing configuration, weight of the plane and contents, air density, wind speed and direction.

This is a fact... a Ducati 900 is faster 0 to 100....
Its 0-60mph time will depend on the weight of the aicraft and how much power the pilot chooses to apply. Often pilots do not apply 100% engine power for noise abatement reasons, to save fuel, and to avoid engine damage.
If I were to give an approximation, I'd say it would be around 10 seconds (60mph is 52 knots, a 737 takes-off at around 140 to 170 knots).
