It varies greatly. It will depend on how far away it is from the object it's orbiting. If it is in a circular orbit around the Earth, its speed can be calculated by the formula:

speed = Squareroot(398600/(6371+altitude))

This will give you an answer in kilometers per second.

How does astronauts go into space when there is gravity?

The massive speed and acceleration of the spaceship is so great, that they are able to escape Earth's gravitational pull. Then at around the correct altitute, they can orbit the Earth safely.

Spaceship 1 and Spaceship 2 have equal masses of 300 kg Spaceship 1 has a speed of 0 m s and Spaceship 2 has a speed of 4 m s What is the magnitude of their combined momentum?

Momentum = (speed) times (mass).Spaceship-1 has no momentum, since its speed is zero. The combined momentum is just the momentum of Spaceship-2.Momentum of Spaceship-2 = (m V) = 300 x 4 = 1,200 kg-meters

Spaceship 1 and Spaceship 2 have equal masses of 200 kg. Spaceship 1 has a speed of 0 ms and Spaceship 2 has a speed of 10 ms. What is the magnitude of their combined momentum?

Momentum = mass x speedSince Spaceship-#1 is not moving, it has no momentum. Their combined momentumis that of Spaceship-#2 alone.Momentum = mass x speed = 200 x 10 = 2,000 kilogram-meters per second.
