| How long will it take for an artificial satellite launched from Earth to reach the surface of the Moon (384 thousand km) if it moves at the first cosmic speed?
The first space speed is 8 km / s.
Time is determined by the formula t = S: V = 384,000 km: 8 km / s = 48,000 s = 13 h 19 min 48 s
Answer: 13 h 19 min 48 s
