A train travels a distance of 180 miles in 3 hours. If the train travels at a constant speed, how long will it take the train to travel 270 miles?

    Given:
    Distance = 180 miles
    Time = 3 hours

    Speed = Distance/Time
    Speed = 180 miles / 3 hours
    Speed = 60 miles/hour

    For 270 miles:
    Time = Distance/Speed
    Time = 270 miles / 60 miles/hour
    Time = 4.5 hours

The Riddle of the Rotating Satellite

-
A communication satellite orbits the Earth in a circular path. At a certain time, its shadow falls on a particular point on the Earth's surface. After 3 hours, the Earth has rotated 45 degrees, and the satellite has also completed a part of its orbit. If the satellite's shadow is now 1000 km away from the original point, calculate the radius of the satellite's orbit, assuming it remains constant and the Earth is a perfect sphere with a radius of 6400 km. Use the formula for the arc length in a circle, S=rθ, where S is the arc length, r is the radius, and θ is the angle in radians.
