Light travels about 1 mile in 0.000005. If a spacecraft could travel at this speed,it would travel almost 0.000001 miles in 5 seconds. About how far would this spacecraft travel in 50 seconds?
0.000010
i think im not sure bout that but idk.
correct
To find out how far the spacecraft would travel in 50 seconds, we can use the information provided: the spacecraft travels almost 0.000001 miles in 5 seconds.
First, we need to calculate the distance traveled by the spacecraft in 1 second. We can divide 0.000001 miles by 5 (the number of seconds it took to travel that distance).
0.000001 miles / 5 seconds = 0.0000002 miles/second
Now we have the distance per second, we can multiply it by the number of seconds we want to calculate, which is 50 seconds.
0.0000002 miles/second * 50 seconds = 0.00001 miles
Therefore, the spacecraft would travel approximately 0.00001 miles in 50 seconds.
