What time is 180 degrees?
There are different possible answers. 180 degrees in he earth's orbit represents 6 months. 180 degrees in the moon's orbit represents around 14 days. 180 degrees in the earth's rotation, or around the earth's body represents 12 hours.
How many days does it take to travel to the moon going 70 miles per hour?
At a distance of 238,900 miles from Earth, it would take you about 4.7 months to reach the moon at 70 miles per hour.
What is an approximate value for the rate at which the moon orbits the earth assuming the orbit is circular and the average distance between the earth and the moon is 382000000 meters?
The Radius of the moon = 382 000 000 metres Pi = 3.14159265 2 x 382 000 000 x 3.14159265 = 2 400 176784.6 The distance the moon travels in one revolution of the Earth is = 2 400 176784.6 meters The moon takes 27.32166 days to orbit the Earth. 2 400 176 784.6 / 27.32166 = 87 848 863.67 (2dp) metres in one day. 87 848 863.67 / 24 = 3 660 369.32 (2dp) metres in one hour 3 660 369.32 / 60 = 61 006.16 (2dp) metres in one minute 61 006.16 / 60 = 1 016.77 (2dp) metres in one secondlook it up
What does the spin rate of the moon have in common with its orbital rate about the earth?
The moon spins quite slowly, about once each 27 days, this monthly rate of spin matches the rate at which the moon revolves about the Eath.
How long would it take you to drive a car to the moon at 70 miles per hour?
The earth's escape velocity is approx 25,000 miles per hour so at 70 mph you would ot be able to leave earth!Space rockets do not travel in a straight line. Instead, they first orbit the earth and then use a kind of sling-shot effect to travel across space. The distance travelled, therefore bears little relation to the distance between the earth and the moon.However, a journey as long as the earth-moon distance, at 70 mph, would take a little over 142 days.
