4 seconds? After an impact involving a non-functioning satellite‚ a paint chip leaves the surface of the satellite at a speed of 96 m/s. After 17 seconds‚ how far has the chip landed? The space shuttle Endeavor is launched to altitude of 500 km above the surface of the earth. The shuttle travels at an average rate of 700 m/s. How long will it take for Endeavor to reach its orbit? How long will your trip take (in hours) if you travel 350 km at an average speed of 80 km/hr?
