Question

The Parker Solar Probe is supposed to reach a top speed of 430,000 miles per hour. If it
were to fly at this speed for 43,800 hours (5 years), how many miles would it travel?

Answer 1

1.88*10^10 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

(430,000m/h)*(24 hours/ 1 day)*(365 days/ 1 year)*(5years)

Everything but miles cancels out,

430,000*(24*365*5) = 18,834,000,000miles

Or, 18.8 billion miles

Or, 1.88*10^(10) miles
