Question

Earth orbits the sun at an average speed of 29.79 kilometers per second. Find how long it take, to the nearest hundredth of a second, for earth to travel 500 kilometers

Answer 1

Answer:

16.78 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

speed = Distance Traveled / time

thus speed =29.79 Km/sec

time =distance Traveled/speed (from above formula)

time taken=500 km ÷ 29.79 Km/sec

∴time taken=16.78 seconds
