Respuesta :

It would take approximately 315 hours to go to the astronaut

Solution:

Given that, astronaut travels 1221 km/h to the moon

The moon is 384,400 km away

To find: time taken for the astronaut to go to the moon

From given information,

speed = 1221 km/hr

distance = 384400 km

The formula for time is given as:

[tex]speed = \frac{distance}{time}\\\\time = \frac{distance}{speed}[/tex]

Substituting the given values,

[tex]time = \frac{384400}{1221} = 314.82 \approx 315[/tex]

Thus it would take approximately 315 hours to go to the astronaut
