Answer:
Time taken, t = 30.15 minutes
Explanation:
It is given that,
Distance from the center of planet, r = 40 miles
Speed of the shuttle, v = 500 miles per hour
Let t is the time taken by it to complete one full orbit. The displacement of the shuttle is,
d = 251.32 miles
Now time can be calculated using the expression for the velocity as :
t = 0.50264 hours
or
t = 30.15 minutes
So, the shuttle will take 30.15 minutes to complete one full orbit. Hence, this is the required solution.
