Question

A satellite moves at a speed of 27,000 kilometers per hour. Write four numbers that could be the actual speed of the satellite.

Answer 1

27,000 kilometers per hour equals

16777 miles per hour
24606 Feet per second
7500 Meters per second
14759 Knots

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The speed of the satellite is 27,000 km/hour. There can be many units of speed i.e. meter per second, feet per second, miles per hour and knot. Firstly, we will use the following conversions as :

1 kilometer/hour = 0.2777 meter/second

Speed of satellite, v = 7500 m/s

1 kilometer/hour = 0.621 miles/hour

Speed of satellite, v = 16777.022 miles/hour

1 kilometer/hour = 0.911344 feet/second

Speed of satellite, v = 24606.29 ft/s

1 kilometer/hour = 0.539957 knots

Speed of satellite, v = 14578.834 knots

Hence, this is the required solution.
