To find the time it would take for the rocket to travel from Earth to Mercury, we can divide the distance by the speed of the rocket:
Time = Distance / Speed
Time = 9.21*10^7 km / (3.93*10^4 km/hr)
Time ≈ 2341 hours
Rounded to the nearest whole number, it would take the rocket approximately 2341 hours to travel from Earth to Mercury.
The distance from earth to Mercury is 9.21*10^7 kilometers. How long would it take a rocket, traveling at 3.93*10^4 kilometers per hour to travel from earth to Mercury? Round your answer to the nearest whole number of hours.
