Q1: Approximately how long would it take to get to Saturn travelling at the speed of an
aeroplane?​

Respuesta :

Answer:

it would take approximately 3 years and 2 mouths

Explanation:

To achieve this speed, they use the gravitational pulls of objects in our solar system to increase their speed. It took these two spacecraft about 3 years and 2 months to reach the ringed planet of Saturn.

Approximately 3 years and 2 mouths would be taken.

What is distance of Saturn from earth?

At its closest,

Saturn is 1.2 billion kilometers away from Earth. So with today's spacecraft technology, you'll need about eight years to make the trip.

To increase their speed, we use the gravitational pulls of objects in our solar system . It took these two spacecraft about 3 years and 2 months to reach the ringed planet of Saturn.

For space travel, distances are very large.

So the rate at which you travel is very important.

However, two other factors play an important role. One is that you rarely travel in a straight line between any two destinations and the other is that if you want to stop some place (like Apollo missions to the Moon), you spend a great deal of your travel time slowing down. If you can't slow down, you would just shoot right by your destination and keep going into deep space!

For example, the Apollo spacecraft took about 3 days to travel to the Moon even though it only covered a distance of about 375,000 km and at times reached a speed of 8 km/sec.

Therefore:

Approximately 3 years and 2 mouths would it take to get to Saturn travelling at the speed of an Aeroplan.
