How long would it take to travel 1 million miles in a spacecraft at 100000 miles per second?
It would take 10 seconds.
How many miles a second does the light travel?
The speed of light is 186,282 miles per second.
How many feet would you travel in 1 second at 90 miles per hour?
Divide the 90 miles by 3600. That's the amount of miles you travel in a second. Then convert this from miles to feet.
How many miles per second will a train travel at 120 mph?
0.033 miles per second or about 174.24 feet per second.
How fast does an airplane travel per second?
At 550 miles per hour, it would be .15 miles per second.
Is a voyager spacecraft faster than a space shuttle?
Yes, both Voyager spacecraft travel much faster than the space shuttle. The space shuttle only needs to travel about 5 miles per second to achieve Low-Earth-Orbit. Voyager 1 travels at over 10 miles per second.
How long would it take to travel 1 million miles in a spacecraft at 100000 miles per second?
It would take 10 seconds.
What are the names of the spacecraft that have visited Neptune?
Voyager 2 is the only spacecraft to currently visit Neptune, passing 3,000 miles from the planet on August 25, 1989.
How long would it take a spacecraft to travel 4.3 light years?
At a typical 18.6 miles per second the spacecraft travels at 1/10,000 of the speed of light, therefore it would take 43,000 years.
The space craft that flew by and photographed the four gas giants in the 1970's?
That was the Voyager I and II spacecraft. Voyager I is 10 billion miles away from the sun (the Earth is only ~93 million miles from the sun and Pluto is 3.67 billion miles). A radio signal from Voyager takes ~15 hours to reach Earth.
How many spacecraft have visited Neptune?
Only one through 2009. The Voyager 2 probe visited Neptune in 1989, having previously passed Jupiter, Saturn, and Uranus. Voyager 2 took the first close-up photos of the Neptunian moon Triton and discovered 5 new inner moons.
What space crafts have been to Uranus?
So var, the only spacecraft to visit the planet Uranus was the Voyager 2 mission. It made a fairly close pass by Uranus on January 24, 2986.
How fast does a comet travel?
comets travel around 26 miles per second to 298 miles per second.
How long does it take to travel 347 miles in a spacecraft?
one hour nine minutes and 4 secounds
How many miles has the Voyager 1 spacecraft traveled so far?
Remember, the question is how many miles has the Voyager 1 spacecraft traveled, (Not how far is it from the sun or Earth). Voyager 1 left Earth on 09/05/1977 and today is 06/28/2013. That is approximately 35 3/4th years. In October of 1978, Voyager 1 was traveling at a speed of 34,422 mph, 55397 kph. By March 1979 she had increased her speed to a top speed of 82,935 mph, 133471 kph during her fly by of Jupiter. There are current readings that Voyager 1 is now traveling at a diminishing speed of 37,500 mph, 60,350kph. After all the calculations of the speed differential and speed duration, the average speed is calculated to 37,900 mph. That would mean that the approximate total miles that Voyager 1 has traveled is 11,869,770,400 miles or 19,102,543km. Now the distance from the Sun to Voyager 1 is approximately 122 AUs (Astronomical units). An AU is the distance from the Earth to the sun and that is approximately 92,955,807 miles, 149597870 km which would make the distance from the sun to Voyager 1, 11,340,608,454 miles.
What is the longest distance a spacecraft has traveled?
Voyager I and Voyager II, launched in 1977 have flown to the edge of our solar system. As of February 2009, Voyager I is about 10 billion miles (10,000,000,000) from the sun. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voyager_I
How fast must a spacecraft travel relative to the earth for each day on the spacecraft to respond to 2d on the earth?
sqrt( 1 - v2/c2 ) = 0.51 - v2/c2 = 0.25v2/c2 = 0.75v/c = sqrt(0.75) = 0.86603v = 0.86603 c = 259,627.9 kilometers per second = 161,324.9 miles per second.
