How long will it take to travel a mile at 1000 mph?

Answer 1

Roughly 10750 years. (:

It depends on how fast you are traveling. At the speed of light, it would take one year to travel a distance equal to one light year. The speed of light is about 186,282 miles per second. This works out to over 670 million miles per hour and about 5.87 trillion miles per year. So a distance of one light year is equal to a distance of about 5.87 trillion miles. At the speed of an interplanetary space probe traveling at a velocity of 40,000 miles per hour, it would take 16,765 years to travel one light year. The nearest star besides our sun, Proxima Centauri, is about 4.3 light years away. At a speed of 40,000 miles per hour, the velocity of our interplanetary space probe, it would take a little over 73,000 years to reach Proxima Centauri.

Answer 2

A light-year is the distance the light travels in a year.

Answer 3

A light year is about 5.9 trillion miles, so going at 1,000 mph it would take about 5.9 billion hours or 670,000 years.

Answer 4

The trip would take 100,592 years and 6 months at 100,000 miles per hour.

Answer 5

5.87849981 × 1012 Hours

Answer 6

Approximately 670,617 years.

Answer 7

It would take 3.6 seconds.
