Question

1. a comet is cruising through the solar system at a speed of 50,000 kilometers per hour for 4 hours time. what is the total distance traveled by the comet during this time? equation: plug numbers into the equation final answer w/ units

Explanation:

Step1: Recall distance - speed - time formula

$d = s\times t$ (where $d$ is distance, $s$ is speed, $t$ is time)

Step2: Plug in given values

$s = 50000$ km/h, $t = 4$ h, so $d=50000\times4$

Step3: Calculate the result

$d = 200000$ km

Answer:

200000 km
