Question

The speed of a space station in orbit is about 1300 meters per second.How many kilometers per hour does the space station travel?

Answer 1

Answer:

4680 km / hour

Step-by-step explanation:

You can do this with a method called dimensional analysis. (I think you should check the speed. Are you sure it is that fast?)

$\frac{1300 m}{sec}*\frac{1 km}{1000 m} * \frac{3600 sec}{1 hr}$

1.3 * 3600 = 4680 km/hour
