Answer:
252.45 hours or 908820 seconds
Explanation:
The equatorial radius of Saturn is 60,268 km
The length of the equator will be circumference
[tex]2\pi 60268[/tex]
Speed of the equatorial flow = 1500 km/h
[tex]Time=\dfrac{Distance}{Speed}\\\Rightarrow Time=\dfrac{2\pi 60268}{1500}\\\Rightarrow Time=252.45\ h=252.45\times 60\times 60=908820\ s[/tex]
It will take 252.45 hours or 908820 seconds for the equatorial flow to encircle the planet.
Answer:
The time taken will be 243.92 hours.
Explanation:
Given that,
Velocity = 1500 km/h
We know that,
The radius of Saturn is 58232 km.
We need to calculate the circumference of Saturn
Using formula of circumference
[tex]C= 2\pi r[/tex]
Pu the value into the formula
[tex]C=2\pi\times 58232[/tex]
[tex]C=365882.44\ km[/tex]
We need to calculate the time
Using formula of distance
[tex]v = \dfrac{d}{t}[/tex]
[tex]t=\dfrac{d}{v}[/tex]
Where, d = circumference
v = velocity
Put the value into the formula
[tex]t=\dfrac{365882.44}{1500}[/tex]
[tex]t=243.92\ hours[/tex]
Hence, The time taken will be 243.92 hours.
