You can put this solution on YOUR website! A space shuttle maneuvers so that it may capture an already orbiting satellite that is 6000km.ahead.If the satellite is moving at 27,000km/h and the shuttle is moving at 29,500km/h. How long will it take the shuttle to reach the satellite?
---------------------
It's 6000 km ahead
The shuttle is "gaining on it" at 2500 km/hr

6000/2500 = 2.4 hours
