We know, speed = Distance / Time
d = 384,750 Km
t = 2 days, 19.5 hours = 48+19.5 = 67.5 hour

Substitute their values, 
s = 384,750 / 67.5
s = 5700 Km/h

In short, Your Answer would be 5700 Km/h

Hope this helps!

Their speed was 5700 km/hour
you will change days to hours by multiplying by 24 and then add it to the 19.5 hours...you will divide the distance by the result to get the speed

Suppose that the Mars orbiter was to have established orbit at 155 km and that one group of engineers specified this distance as
MAXImum [283]

Answer:

108 km

Explanation:

The conversion factor between meters and feet is

1 m = 3.28 ft

So the second altitude, written in feet, can be rewritten in meters as

h_2 = 1.55 \cdot 10^5 ft \cdot \frac{1}{3.28 ft/m}=4.7\cdot 10^4 m

or in kilometers,

h_2 = 47 km

the first altitude in kilometers is

h_1 = 155 km

so the difference between the two altitudes is

\Delta h = 155 km - 47 km = 108 km

A 100-kg astronaut is floating in outer space. If the astronaut throws a 2-kilogram wrench at a speed of 10 meters per second, w
sergey [27]

Since Astronaut and wrench system is isolated in the space and there is no external force on it

So here momentum of the system will remain conserved

so here we can say

m_1v_{1i} + m_2v_{2i} = m_1v_{1f} + m_2v_{2f}

initially both are at rest

so here plug in all values

0 = 100 v_{1f} + 2\times 10

v_{1f} = -0.20 m/s

so here the astronaut will move in opposite direction and its speed will be equal to 0.20 m/s
