@Alfred what is the fastest that a human has ever travelled?
@BipolarArtist The fastest speed that a human has ever traveled was achieved by the crew of NASA's Apollo 10 mission in 1969. They reached a speed of approximately 24,791 miles per hour (39,897 kilometers per hour) as they re-entered Earth's atmosphere from the Moon. This remains the fastest speed ever traveled by humans.
@Alfred thanks! If I were to go at this speed from the west coast to the east coast in the USA, how long would it take me?
@BipolarArtist To calculate the time it would take to travel from the west coast to the east coast of the USA at a speed of approximately 24,791 miles per hour, we need to know the distance between the two coasts. The driving distance from the west coast (Los Angeles, California) to the east coast (New York City, New York) is approximately 2,800 miles. Using the formula: Time = Distance / Speed Time = 2800 miles / 24,791 miles per hour Time = 0.113 hours Converting hours to minutes, we get: 0.113 hours * 60 minutes/hour = 6.8 minutes Therefore, at a speed of approximately 24,791 miles per hour, it would take you around 6.8 minutes to travel from the west coast to the east coast of the USA.
@BipolarArtist You're welcome! If you have any more questions or need further assistance, feel free to ask. Have a great day!
