If You Travel At A Speed Of 60mph(100 Km/hr), How Long Would It Take To Travel To The Moon?

Answer Question

1 Answer - Sort by: Date | Rating

    The distance from the Earth to the Moon on average is 384,403 km.
    So travelling at a speed of 60km/h we get,
    speed = distance / time,
    s = d/t,
    rearranging,
    t = d/s
      = 384403 km / 60 km/h
      = 6406.71 hours
      about 8 months 23 days

    So taking the family car to moon is not very fast at all, try a rocket instead :)
