Question: A satellite completes one orbit around the Earth in 90 minutes. How many orbits does it complete in 24 hours?

Options:

  1. 16
  2. 24
  3. 32
  4. 48

Correct Answer: 32

Solution: 

Total minutes in 24 hours = 24 × 60 = 1,440 minutes. Orbits = 1,440 minutes / 90 minutes/orbit = 16 orbits.

Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

A satellite completes one orbit around the Earth in 90 minutes. How many orbits does it complete in 24 hours?
  • Step 1: Determine how many minutes are in 24 hours. To do this, multiply 24 hours by 60 minutes per hour.
  • Step 2: Calculate the total minutes: 24 × 60 = 1,440 minutes.
  • Step 3: Find out how many orbits the satellite completes in 1,440 minutes. Since one orbit takes 90 minutes, divide the total minutes by the time per orbit.
  • Step 4: Calculate the number of orbits: 1,440 minutes ÷ 90 minutes/orbit = 16 orbits.
  • Time Conversion – Understanding how to convert hours into minutes to facilitate calculations.
  • Division – Applying division to determine how many times a smaller time unit fits into a larger time unit.
