2
V1 is selected so that, if the take-off is continued after an engine failure which is recognised at or above the V1 speed, it will be possible to attain a height of 50 ft within the scheduled take-off distance multiplied by a factor of 1.15, or if the take-off is abandoned at or below the V1 speed it will be possible to bring the aircraft to a stop within the scheduled accelerate-stop distance multiplied by a factor of 1.10
3
V1 must be less than VR
4
no time interval is allowed between engine failure speed (VEF) and V1 so the minimum V1 speed is when V1 is equal to VEF

Answer 21

V1 is selected so that, if the take-off is continued after an engine failure which is recognised at or above the V1 speed, it will be possible to attain a height of 35 ft within the scheduled take-off distance, or if the take-off is abandoned at or below the V1 speed it will be possible to bring the aircraft to a stop within the scheduled accelerate-stop distance
