If astronauts travel to the Moon and back to Earth again in 144 hours how many kilometers per hour do they travel?
Around 5339 km/hour is the result for the "average speed" but the actual top speed would be much higher, and the lowest speed much lower. In the 148-hour trip by Apollo 8 in 1968, the spacecraft spent 2 hours in Earth orbit before traveling to the Moon, and 67 hours getting there. They spent 20 hours making 10 orbits of the Moon, at an average speed of about 6000 km/hr. On the last leg of their return to Earth, they traveled 400,000 km in 55 hours and reached a maximum speed of 40,000 km/hr.
The "average" distance to the Moon is 384,400 km, so the round trip is a minimum of 768, 800 km.
The actual surface to surface distance is about 8100 km less, since the distance is measured from the center of the Earth to the center of the Moon, but you would probably have to orbit anyway.
768800 km / 144 hours = 5338.88 km/hr
What else can I help you with?
An object travels 8 m in the 1st second of travel 8m again during the 2nd second of travel and 8m again during the 3rd second its acceleration in meters per second per second is?
Speed is constant. Acceleration is zero.
An object travels 8 m in the 1st second of travel 8 m again during the 2nd second of travel and 8 m again during the 3rd second Its acceleration in meters per second per second is?
Zero. It is not getting any faster or slower
A car traveled 1508 miles at 58 miles an hour how many miles did it travel?
Look at the question again; the answer is right there.
An object travels 8 m in the 1st second of travel 8 m again during the 2nd second of travel and 8 m again during the 3rd second Its acceleration is therefore?
Acceleration is zero velocity is constant at 8m every second acceleration is the gradient of velocity and the gadient of a constant = 0
A car slows to a stop in 5 seconds if it was going 80 kilometers an hour what was its acceleration?
You can't figure "acceleration" from this information. Maybe you meant "Deceleration"? Ask again.
How do astronauts return to the earth. How do they propel their space shuttle back into the earth's atmosphere?
Astronauts return to Earth by firing the engines of the spacecraft in the opposite direction of travel, slowing it down and allowing it to re-enter the atmosphere. This process is known as a de-orbit burn. The spacecraft then follows a controlled descent through the atmosphere until it lands safely back on Earth.
Why doAstronauts get taller when they are in space?
Astronauts may appear taller in space due to spinal elongation caused by the lack of gravity compressing the spine, allowing the vertebrae to separate slightly. This effect is temporary, and astronauts typically return to their original height once back on Earth and gravity begins compressing their spine again.
Why do astronauts feel dizzy when they enter the earth's atmosphere from spending a long time in space?
They begin feeling gravity again which is now pulling all their blood and it changes their blood pressure and the fluid in the ear drums.
How did astronauts get off the moon?
Astronauts returned to Earth from the Moon by using the Lunar Module (LM) - a spacecraft with two parts: the ascent stage and the descent stage. The ascent stage carried the astronauts back to the Command Module in lunar orbit, while the descent stage remained on the Moon's surface. The Lunar Module docked with the Command Module, and the astronauts transferred back to Earth using the Command Module for reentry.
What do most astronauts do with their sleeping bags?
Most astronauts secure their sleeping bags to the walls or ceilings of their sleeping quarters to prevent floating around in microgravity. Some astronauts may choose to sleep in a sleeping bag for added comfort or warmth.
What is the distance between Jupiter and Earth in astronomical units?
.73 AU?But the distance from Mercury to the Earth varies greatly as both planets orbit the Sun. At its closest approach, Mercury is about 77 million kilometers (48 million miles) from Earth*. At its farthest, about 222 million kilometers (138 million miles).
What fraction of the world's surface is covered by Canada?
Canada has a total area (land and territorial waters) of slightly less than 10 million square kilometers. The total area of the surface of the earth (again, land and water) is about 510 million square kilometers, so Canada is a bit less than 2% of the total area of the earth. By land area alone, Canada is about 9 million square kilometers out of 149 million square kilometers, or about 6% of the total land area.

You are standing on a point on earth called point A you walk north 10km east 10km south 10km now you are at point A again you are not at the south pole where are you?
You are approximately 5 kilometers away from the south pole?
How many kilometers the earth makes round the sun per hour day month year?
The Earth goes around the Sun at a speed of about 30 km/second. You can multiply that by 60 to convert to km/minute, again by 60 to convert to km/hour, etc.
Where does blood travel to and from systemic circulation?
around again
What date and year did John Glenn land on the moon?
John Glenn did not land on the moon. He was the first American to orbit the Earth as part of the Mercury-Atlas 6 mission on February 20, 1962. The moon landing occurred on July 20, 1969, with astronauts Neil Armstrong and Edwin "Buzz" Aldrin of Apollo 11.
